Ingredients

  • 4 Raw and Firm Bananas (400 grams including skin)
  • 2 tablespoon of Coconut oil (One can use any oil of choice)

Instructions

  • Peel the bananas and immerse them in cold water. I used plain cold tap water.
  • Let them sit in water for 10-15 minutes.

  • In the meantime preheat the oven to 180 Deg C/400 Deg F.
  • Arrange a baking tray with parchment paper.
  • Now in a large bowl slice the banana finely. I have used a grater.
  • Add 2 tbsp coconut oil, salt to taste.
  • Add freshly ground black pepper if you prefer.

  • Give everything a quick mix.
  • Line the chips on the baking tray in a single line not to overcrowd and not overlapping each other.

  • Bake in a preheated oven at 180 Deg C/400 Deg F for 30-40 minutes turning in between.
  • Turn in between after 15 minutes.
  • Keep a close eye after 30 minutes as towards the end they get cooked quickly and there are high chances they might get burnt.
  • They are done when they are firm to the touch and start turning brown all over.
  • Remove it from the oven and let it cool on the baking tray.

  • Store this in an airtight container at all times.

Notes

  • 1 Cup = 235 ml, 1 tbsp= 15 ml, 1 tsp = 5 ml
  • The baking time will vary depending on the chip size and the tray size on how closely or far they are arranged in the baking tray.
  • Keep a close eye after 30 minutes as towards the end they get cooked quickly and there are high chances they might get burnt.
  • Baking time varies depending on the oven, so do keep an eye after they are half done.
  • If at all after a few hours you feel the chips are soft at all, just let it bake again at a minimum temperature like 50 Deg C/ 120 Deg F for 30 minutes.
