Why I love these Air Fryer Bananas
- Dietary needs - these bananas are dairy-free, plant-based, oil-free, gluten-free, and refined sugar-free

Ingredient Notes & Substitutions

- Maple Syrup: to make this recipe completely fruit-sweetened use date syrup instead
- Cinnamon & Nutmeg: you could also add cloves, ginger and/or allspice
- Toppings: nuts, berries, more maple syrup
