Production & Sourcing
Unsweetened banana chips are typically made by slicing fresh bananas and then dehydrating them through a drying process. The bananas are usually soaked in a solution to prevent browning before being evenly sliced into thin pieces. These slices are then dehydrated at a controlled temperature until they reach the desired crispness and moisture content. After drying, they may be lightly fried or baked to attain a crunchy texture.
