Ingredients

2 ripe bananas, mashed
1 egg
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons melted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup mini chocolate chips or chopped walnuts, optional
Cooking spray

Instructions

Preheat the air fryer to 325°F. Lightly grease silicone mini muffin cups.
In a bowl, stir together the mashed bananas, egg, brown sugar, melted butter, and vanilla.
Add the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Stir just until combined. Fold in chocolate chips or walnuts if using.
Spoon the batter into the mini muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
Air fry for 7 to 9 mins., until the bites are set and a toothpick comes out clean.
Let cool for 5 mins. before removing from the cups.
