Baked Banana Chips Recipe

Banana Chips Recipe

Ingredients

• 2 just-ripe bananas, sliced into 1/10-inch thick rounds, or more as needed
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice, or to taste

Directions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 225F (110C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent the bananas from sticking.

Step 2: Lay out the banana slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they do not touch each other.

Step 3: Brush each banana slice lightly with lemon juice for flavor and to prevent browning.

Step 4: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 90 minutes. Check the banana slices every 30 minutes, lifting them from the parchment paper once or twice to ensure they are drying evenly.

Step 5: Continue baking for an additional 30 to 90 minutes, depending on how crispy you want the banana chips. The longer you bake, the crispier they will become.

Step 6: Once done, remove the banana slices from the oven and allow them to cool for at least 5 minutes. The chips will continue to crisp up as they cool.

Recipe Tips:

• If your bananas are too ripe, they may be difficult to slice. For easier slicing, aim for bananas that are just ripe. If using metric units, slice into 1/4-centimeter rounds.
• If the banana chips dont get crispy after 5 minutes of cooling, pop them back into the oven for another 15 minutes for extra crispiness.
