Ingredients
- 3 overripe bananas
- 1 tbsp lemon juice (to preserve color and add a touch of brightness)
- 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup (optional, for extra sweetness)
- A pinch of cinnamon (optional, for flavor)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 200°F (95°C) or use a dehydrator if available.
- Mash the bananas in a bowl until smooth. Add lemon juice, honey (if using), and cinnamon. Mix well.
- Spread the mixture evenly on a parchment-lined baking sheet, about 1/8-inch thick.
- Bake for 2–3 hours, or until the mixture is dry and leathery but still pliable.
- Cool completely, then cut into strips or shapes.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
