Baked Pumpkin Spice Banana Chips are super easy, delicious and healthy with no added sugar.

October is Pumpkin Spice month and everywhere I go I smell it lingering in the air. So I decided to make these leftover plantain banana, purple yam and sweet potato with pumpkin spice.

Instead of seasoning with traditional salt or sugar I gave it a twist of pumpkin spice.

Pumpkin Spice Banana Chips is Today's Delight

Baked bananas with pumpkin spice seasoning is delicious. It is healthy, no preservative, no sugar but only its natural sweetness.

Tip: Pick a plantain banana with yellow skin but not overly ripe. Banana should be firm and not too soft when baking banana chips.

There’s a funny story about these bananas. I bought 3 plantain bananas that I placed in the fruit bowl.

When we were at the Asian store, my mom asked me to buy some plantain bananas. I thought she wanted banana fritters.

Anyway, I bought three and used one for Ginataang Halo Halo, a Filipino dessert with a mixture of yam, sweet potato, banana and other ingredients cooked in coconut milk.

The next morning when I was ready to use the bananas, one disappeared. I had a feeling my mom ate it. I asked my Mom but she doesn’t remember. She has early stages of dementia.

I forgot to check the trash can to check if there's a banana peel. Anyway, I really believed she ate it. We were both surprised she didn’t have tummy ache.

I was telling my brother the story and we were both laughing because it got me so curious if raw plantain banana is edible. Obviously, if she ate it and no belly ache then it must be OK.

Well, when I made the Filipino dessert and peeled the plantain banana, I tried a piece. It was OK but I don’t think I would eat it raw.

A couple of days passed and I saw an empty chex mix bag in the fridge. Guess what was inside, the plantain banana cut in half. My mom probably realized after cutting that it was too firm and not edible. Mystery solved.

My mom does many things now that she doesn’t remember. All I hope is she doesn’t hurt herself.

How to Make Pumpkin Spice Banana Chips

Again, use a slightly ripe plantain banana. Peel the skin and slice the banana thinly and diagonally.

Lightly grease the baking sheet and lay the banana slices. Sprinkle some pumpkin spice seasoning on each banana.

Bake at 250 degrees F for 40 – 50 minutes. Oven temperature may vary so make sure to watch your chips while baking. Banana will not come out crispy or crunchy, but it is delicious.

One thing I discovered, it is really good to sandwich the baked banana chip with baked sweet potato or the purple yam.

I video all the steps but it is such a simple recipe that I decided not to publish it. If I get many request for the video, then I will.
