1 teaspoon ground cinnamon nutmeg is a great alternative for a different kick.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your air fryer to 350°F for about 5 minutes.
In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup of brown sugar with 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon.
Peel the bananas and slice each banana in half lengthwise.
Brush both sides of each banana half with melted butter and sprinkle the sugar and cinnamon mixture.
Line the air fryer basket with parchment paper and arrange the banana halves in a single layer.
Cook the banana halves in the air fryer at 350°F for about 7 minutes, checking for tenderness.
Carefully lift the parchment paper to remove the cooked bananas. Serve warm with toppings.
