Air Fried Pumpkin Spice Bananas with Maple Roasted Walnuts

Jump to Recipe

You know I love my air fryer and have become on of those people that tells everyone that they also need one. I decided I wanted to play around and see what non-traditional items I could air fry and see how they turned out. I have had fried bananas in the past so I thought I would see how they would turn out in the air fryer. Spoiler alert, they turned out great. Nice crispy edges with a soft, gooey center.

These are great solo, but I added maple glazed walnuts and paired them with coconut whipped cream and yogurt to compare. These really can be a decadent breakfast or a tasty dessert depending on the mood you are in. Have you ever air fried bananas? What other items have you air fried that turned out great? Let me know in the comments below.
