Xanthan Gum Free Air Fryer Banana Chips

Crispy, golden, and lightly sweet, these air fryer banana chips hit that satisfying snack craving without a single additive or stabilizer in sight. The ingredient list is refreshingly short — just ripe bananas, a squeeze of lemon juice, and optional cinnamon and salt — so there's nothing hidden to worry about. A lot of store-bought banana chips are coated in oils or contain binding agents that can be hard to track down on a label, making homemade the smarter move. The lemon juice does double duty here, preventing browning and adding a subtle brightness that keeps the flavor from being one-note. Slicing the bananas to a consistent 1/8-inch thickness is the real trick to getting that satisfying crunch, and the wire rack cool-down at the end lets them crisp up to perfection. These are the kind of snacks you'll want to make in double batches because the first round disappears fast.
