Ingredients
- • ripe bananas: 4, peeled and halved lengthwise
- • pomegranate seeds: 1 cup
- • tahini: 2 tablespoons
- • maple syrup: 1 tablespoon
- • lemon juice: 1 teaspoon
- • cinnamon: 1 teaspoon
- • chopped walnuts: 2 tablespoons
- • pinch of sea salt
- • fresh mint leaves: for garnish
Instructions
- 1 Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C). This ensures your bananas will caramelize perfectly without excess oil.
- 2 In a small bowl, mix the tahini, maple syrup, lemon juice, and a pinch of sea salt until smooth. Set aside for later drizzling.
- 3 Arrange the banana halves in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overlapping. Sprinkle each with cinnamon.
- 4 Air-fry the bananas for about 8 minutes or until they are golden brown and caramelized. Keep an eye on them to avoid overcooking.
- 5 Remove the bananas from the air fryer and place them on a serving platter. Scatter the pomegranate seeds and chopped walnuts over the top.
- 6 Drizzle the tahini mixture over the bananas and finish with fresh mint leaves for a burst of flavor and color. Serve immediately.
Serving Suggestions
- • This dessert pairs beautifully with a scoop of coconut yogurt or a dollop of Greek yogurt for added creaminess. Consider serving it alongside a warm cup of herbal tea or a refreshing mint-infused iced tea to enhance its vibrant flavors. For an extra indulgent experience, top the dessert with a sprinkle of cacao nibs or a light dusting of cocoa powder. This will not only complement the bananas' natural sweetness but also enhance the overall richness of the dish.
Storage Tips
While best enjoyed fresh, you can store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To maintain the bananas' texture, consider reheating them briefly in the air fryer before serving. Avoid freezing, as the texture of the bananas might become mushy.
