Spicy Banana Chips

Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 20 minutes

Ingredients

  • 4 near-ripe to ripe bananas peeled, do not use overly ripe bananas
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper powder

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, paprika, cumin, salt, chili powder, and cayenne pepper powder.
  • Slice the bananas into thin circles, then coat then transfer them to the mixing bowl. Coat the banana slices thoroughly with the spices.
  • Transfer the coated banana slices to a foil-lined baking sheet and spread them evenly.
  • Place the baking sheet in the oven. Bake the banana slices for 8 minutes, then flip the slices and bake for another 5 minutes or until golden brown. Check often on the chips to make sure they don't burn.
  • Remove the chips from the oven, allow them to cool for 5 minutes, then serve.

Notes

For a milder spicy banana chip, reduce or remove completely the cayenne pepper powder from the ingredient list. You will still get a mild heat from the paprika and chili powder.
