Ingredients
Equipment
Steps
- 1
Halve bananas lengthwise (leave skins on for easier handling). Brush cut sides with melted butter.
- 2
Mix brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Sprinkle generously over the cut sides.
- 3
Place cut-side up in the basket. Air fry at 380°F for 8-10 minutes until caramelized and golden.
- 4
Carefully remove from skins. Serve warm over vanilla ice cream with chopped nuts and a drizzle of honey.
Tip: Use ripe bananas with some brown spots — they have more sugar to caramelize. Underripe bananas won't develop that toffee-like flavor.
Why Air Fry This?
- ⏱️Ready in 10 minutes vs ~17 in a conventional oven — no preheating needed.
- 🌡️Concentrated heat circulation produces even browning and a crispier crust than a full-size oven.
- 🔥Rapid air circulation delivers oven-quality results in a fraction of the time.
