Air fryer Banana Chips

I make these green banana or plantain chips in Air fryer with just 1 tsp. of oil and they taste truly amazing. They are gluten free and vegan.

Ingredients:

  • 2 plantains
  • 2 tsp. coconut oil
  • ½ tsp. turmeric powder
  • ½ tsp. salt to taste
  • ½ tsp. cayenne or chilli powder optional
  • ½ tsp. pepper powder

Directions:

  • Wash and peel the bananas. Soak in ½ tsp. turmeric and salt water for 10 minutes.
  • This helps in preventing them from turning dark.
  • Dry the bananas and using a mandolin finely slice the plantains into chips.
  • Take 1 tsp. coconut oil. Add ½ tsp. turmeric powder, pepper and salt to it and mix well. Brush on both sides of the chips and mix well so that all chips are covered with the oil-spice mix.
  • Preheat Air fryer at 200 C or 390 F for 5 minutes.
  • Lay the chips in the Air fryer so that the overlap is minimal. Air fry at 200 C or 390 F for about 4-6 minutes. For thicker chips, you may need about 8 minutes.
  • Shake the basket once in the middle. If needed brush once more with oil (optional). Take out any chips which have turned brown on the sides.
  • Fry the remaining for a minute or 2 more only if they are not cooked. Take it out and have it hot. Your delicious and healthy plantain chips are ready to eat.
  • Be very careful to watch the chips after 4 minutes if you have sliced them thin. These chips will burn very quickly.
