Quick & Healthy Snacks: Adhya S's 10-Minute Spicy Banana Chips Recipe

Tired of reaching for the processed chips whenever hunger strikes at 4 PM? 

Digital food creator Adhya S brings you the perfect solution: A 10-Minute Spicy Banana Chips- a healthy, air-fried snack that's flavorful, crispy, and super simple to create.

Whether you're a clean-eating enthusiast or just looking forward to reducing your overall junk food intake, this homemade banana chip recipe ticks all the right boxes: fast, fuss-free, and full of flavour.

Why Raw Bananas?-

Raw bananas are very rich in resistant starch and fibre, making them a perfect base for a healthy snack. 

They're naturally low in sugar levels and pair beautifully with some Indian spices, giving you that perfect salty-spicy kick without even the added preservatives.

Step-by-Step Recipe:

Prep the Bananas well

• Chop off both ends and peel the raw banana skin.
• Using a mandolin slicer, slice into some super-thin discs for that crisp, chip-like texture.
• Season It Right
• Add some salt, turmeric powder, and a dash of oil. Mix everything well to evenly coat the banana slices.
• Air Fry for a Crisp Perfection
• Place the slices in an air fryer and cook at around 180°C (350°F) for 8 minutes, or until they're golden and crisp.
• Spice It Up well while Hot

Once they're out of the air fryer, immediately sprinkle some red chili powder on top. Toss them lightly so the heat perfectly activates the flavor, giving you a truly spicy Indian zest.

Why You'll Love This Snack:

Air-fried, not deep-fried – much lower in calories and fat levels.
Quick – Ready in about 10 minutes only.
Customizable – Adjust the spice levels as per your taste.
Budget-friendly – Uses the pantry staples and one raw banana only.

Perfect for evening cravings, school tiffins, travel nibbles, or even Netflix marathons, this snack does it all perfectly without even the guilt.

Pro Tip from Her:

Don't wait too long after the air frying-

Seasoning the chips while they're still hot helps the chili powder to stick even better and bloom in full flavor.
