Banana Chips

How To Dry Bananas (Banana Chips) : TipNut.com: "How To Dry Bananas

Dried Banana Chips

Slice bananas approximately 1/4″ thick
Preheat oven to 150°F
Lay banana pieces in a single layer on a rack placed on top of a cookie sheet.
Place sheet in oven and cook for 1 to 2 hours until bananas are dry.
When done the banana chips will be a bit pliable but hard on the outside, remove from oven and allow to cool fully before storage. Lift each banana slice up off the rack to prevent them from sticking while drying.
Once dry the chips will be crisp.

Tips:

For an extra treat, dip banana pieces in a honey/lemon mixture then dip in shredded coconut or chopped nuts (before placing in oven to dry).
Choose ripe bananas that have no bruises or soft spots for best results.
Store the banana chips in an airtight container.
To help prevent the banana chips from browning while they’re drying, first dip pieces in lemon or pineapple juice.

6 Miles Down and Banana Cake! « Baking with Buttermilk

Banana Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting and Honey-Toasted Almonds (makes 1 double layer cake, or 1 single layer cake and 6 large muffins)

For the cake: (adapted from Culinary Covers)

2 1/2 cups (350 g) all-purpose flour (I used white whole wheat)
1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
3/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup (8 ounces/230 g) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups (300 g) sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 Tbsp instant espresso or coffee powder (I omitted this)
2 large eggs, at room temperature
6 Tbsp (90 ml) buttermilk, yogurt or sour cream (regular or low-fat), at room temperature (I used Fage 0%)
2 cups (50 ml) banana purée (3 to 4 very ripe bananas) (I used 4)

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C)
2. Spray with oil or butter 2 9-inch cake pans. Line the bottoms with parchment paper. (If making muffins, prepare one cake pan and 1 muffin tin)
3. In a medium bowl, combine flour, cinnamon, baking powder, soda and salt. Whisk to combine.
4. In a stand mixer bowl (or large mixing bowl if using a hand mixer or spoon) beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. It should take about 3 to 5 minutes. Incorporate the vanilla and espresso powder. Beat in eggs one at a time until each is completely mixed in. Add half of the flour then the buttermilk and banana purée. Add the remaining flour and stir until combined, but don’t over mix.
5. Divide the batter between the two prepared pans (or pan and muffin tin) and bake until golden and toothpick comes out clean, about 40 minutes. (12-15 minutes for muffins, or until tops spring back to the touch) Cool in pans on wire racks.

For the frosting: (adapted from Cheeky Kitchen’s Come-to-Mama Cream Cheese Frosting)

1 stick butter
4 oz. cream cheese
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1-2 Tbsp. almond milk

In a large bowl, beat together butter and cream cheese until very light and fluffy. Slowly add powdered sugar until well mixed. Add vanilla extract. Tip in a Tablespoon or two of milk, if needed.

For the almonds:

1/3 cup sliced raw almonds
1 Tbsp honey
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/8 tsp salt

Place almonds in a small pan over medium heat. Allow to begin toasting, 1-2 minutes. Add honey, cinnamon and salt, stir until golden. Add water 1 tsp at a time if clumping together. Toast until fragrant but not burnt, about 5 minutes. Pour onto lined baking sheet or Silpat when done until ready to use.
