Cinnamon-Sugar Air Fryer Banana Chips


Variations to Try

  • Spicy Twist : Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili powder to the cinnamon-sugar mix for a sweet-and-spicy kick.
  • Chocolate Drizzle : Melt dark or white chocolate and drizzle over the cooled chips for an indulgent treat.
  • Coconut Flavor : Use coconut oil instead of butter and sprinkle shredded coconut on top before air frying.
  • Gluten-Free Option : Naturally gluten-free, these chips are safe for those avoiding gluten.
  • Vegan Option : Use coconut oil instead of butter and ensure your sugar is vegan-friendly.

Tips for Success
