Something to Snack on: Homemade Banana Chips

Bananas are so easy to like. First of all they are super cheap(especially nice for those on a limited college budget), they are portable, most little kids, adults, and monkeys like bananas, AND did I mention that they go down the hatch pretty easily?! LOL
Whether its gluten free banana bread, fresh bananas, banana splits, banana smoothies, or banana chips I'm game!
A few weeks back I saw a pin on Pinterest on baked banana chips and I personally thought it was an ingenious idea! 
Of course I think the credit goes to self proclaimed "flexitarian" and blogger from http://www.asweetroad.com/. Please visit her blog and check out her recipes at: http://www.asweetroad.com/2011/03/banana-chips.html

Back to the banana chips! The baked version are not as crispy or crunchy like the store bought ones that I normally buy, (duh they're not deep-fried) but they are just as good!
Slightly chewy near the middle and depending on how thin you slice them the bananas have a light and air-y texture. 

You don't need to be a master baker to make theses tasty gluten free snacks. Simply slice the bananas and throw them on a baking sheet. In essence we are dehydrating the bananas in the oven. = Delicious!

Good luck to everyone in the kitchen!
