About Banana chips
Banana chips are sliced banana or plantain prepared as a crisp snack. The slices are usually pale gold to brown, with a crunchy texture and sweet, fruity flavour; some versions are noticeably salty or have a firmer, starchier character.
They may be fried or dried, and can be sold plain, sweetened, salted, or seasoned. The fruit variety, ripeness, thickness of the slices, cooking medium, and additives all affect the result, so “banana chips” does not describe one uniform recipe or nutritional profile.
