Yes, you can still have a banana split. This one just skips the sugar bomb. Ten minutes in the air fryer is all it takes to turn a plain banana into something that actually tastes like dessert: the natural sugars caramelize, the inside goes soft and warm, and a scoop of vanilla Greek yogurt makes it feel indulgent instead of like "diet food."
It's the treat to reach for on the nights you want something sweet without undoing your progress, and it comes together with four ingredients you probably already have.
Ingredients
- 1 medium banana
- 2 tbsp vanilla Greek yogurt, 0% fat
- 2 walnuts, crushed
- 1/2 tsp honey
Directions
- Set your air fryer to 200°C (392°F) to preheat.
- Split the banana lengthwise but ensure it remains in one piece. Place it in the air fryer basket.
- Air fry the banana for 8 to 12 minutes, or until it's thoroughly heated and the edges begin to caramelize.
- Carefully remove the banana from the air fryer and place it on a serving dish. Top it with Greek yogurt.
- Sprinkle crushed walnuts over the yogurt and drizzle honey evenly across the top.
Freeze your banana halves for an hour before air frying. You'll get a firmer, more ice-cream-like bite once the toppings go on.
