Notes

  • Adapted from Cooking Light.
  • There are 6 Blue Plan SmartPoints in a serving of this.
  •  
  • Ideally, you should make sure your ingredients are at room temperature before using. 
  • Do line the bottom of your cake tin with parchment paper to avoid the banana bread sticking.
  • Feel free to use overripe plantains instead.
  • Air fryer temperatures can vary depending on the make and model. I recommend starting out with less cook time, checking for doneness, and then adding more time as needed.
