  • Make sure the plantain slices are not touching to allow your Air Fryer Plantains to cook evenly and allow for maximum air circulation.
  • Cook time will depend on the size of your plantains.
  • Use oil sparingly in the air fryer.
  • Add cinnamon, cardamom or nutmeg as a finishing spice. You can also change the oil to suit your dietary needs.
  • Serve warm. If making a big batch, place your cooked Air Fryer Plantains in a warm oven to keep temperature.
