How to Make Roasted Banana Peels
Choose Ripe Peels:
Use ripe banana peels with spots, as they are softer, sweeter, and richer in antioxidants.
Clean Thoroughly:
Wash the peels under running water to remove any dirt or residues.
Cut into Strips:
Slice the banana peels into manageable pieces or strips for even roasting.
Season (Optional):
For a savory twist, sprinkle with olive oil, a pinch of salt, or spices like cinnamon or turmeric. For a sweeter version, a light brush of honey can enhance flavor.
Roast:
Place the peels on a baking sheet and roast at 350°F (175°C) for about 10–15 minutes, or until they become golden brown and slightly crispy.
