I'm becoming obsessed with my oven. Really.
Everything is popping in there these days. And thanks to this recipe that I found on Pinterest, courtesy of Kia Robertson, I can now include bananas in that category.
Homemade Banana Chips!
The great thing here is that I can decide whether I want the chips thick or thin and this recipe makes great use of two things I *always* have in my house: bananas and lemons. The bummer is that it takes a long time to make. Total time: almost 4 hours. Ugh. But the overwhelming majority of that time is hands off. And when it's done, you have these beautiful, flavorful, inexpensive banana chips that are a great on-the-go snack for kids and parents alike. Next time I'm going to add ground cinnamon.
Enjoy!
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Slice bananas (I used two), spread onto parchment paper on a cookie sheet and sprinkle with lemon juice. Bake for 2 hours and flip. Bake for another 1.5-2 hours or until crisp.
