Banana Taffy (Dehydrated Bananas) - and a hint for slicing

Pin It

I use my egg slicer for so many things (and so far - never eggs!). Slicing bananas is something I’ve done for years. Bananas are so soft and do really well in the egg slicer.

Simply break your banana in two or three sections, and slice…

Aren’t they beautiful? I love the consistency of the thickness of the banana. Here they are on my Nesco food dehydrator trays:

And here they are after drying. They are deliciously chewy like taffy - or leave them longer for banana chips that snap!

I like to store my dehydrated food in Fido jars. They are nice and airtight and the food stays crisp and doesn’t sog up. I also use mason jars with a metal lid and ring (not white lid - they aren’t airtight).

Do you make banana taffy or chips?
