Description
Ingredients
- Choosing Bananas: For the best results, use bananas that are ripe but still firm to ensure they don’t become too mushy during cooking.
- Vegan Variation: Easily make this recipe vegan by substituting the butter with a plant-based alternative. Adjust the sweetness according to your taste, possibly with maple syrup or agave nectar.
- Storage: If you have leftovers, they can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in the air fryer to restore the texture.
- Serving Suggestions: Experiment with toppings! Try adding a sprinkle of crushed nuts, shredded coconut, or a dollop of peanut butter for extra flavor and texture.
Instructions
- Peel the banana and slice into ½ inch thick rounds.
- Melt the butter in the microwave in a medium bowl. Once melted, add the banana, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt, stirring gently to coat.
- Arrange the coated banana slices in a single layer in a greased air fryer basket.
- Air fry at 400 degrees for 4 minutes, or until the bananas are golden and caramelized.
- Serve immediately over oatmeal, with Greek yogurt, or atop ice cream drizzled with caramel sauce.
