Air fryer bananas close up on a plate with sauce

Air Fryer Bananas

Air fried bananas have a wonderful sweetness to them. This is from both the natural sweetness (which comes out more from cooking) and from the cinnamon sugar sprinkled on the bananas.
Really quick to make and go great on their own or with any toppings you desire.

Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 2 bananas
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • Preheat air fryer to 400°F/200°C
  • Mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
  • Peel the bananas and cut them in half lengthwise.
  • Sprinkle the desired amount of the cinnamon sugar over the cut side of the bananas. (Note 1)
  • Place the banana halves into the air fryer basket, with the cut side facing upwards, and cook for 8-12 minutes, until sugar has started to bubble slightly and the bananas are golden. (Note 2)
  • Serve warm with your favorite toppings. (Note 3)

Notes

  1. I suggest a thin layer of the cinnamon sugar as it bubbles up nicely and cooked bananas are already quite sweet on their own. The exact amount needed will depend on the size of the bananas.
  2. Lining the air fryer basket in foil can make cleanup a lot easier as the bananas can be quite flimsy after being cooked. Be sure to leave enough room for air to circulate properly.
  3. I have used ice cream and chocolate sauce in the pictures taken.
