Spray-dried raw banana powder is a fine, light powder made from green (unripe) bananas that have been carefully dried using a spray-drying process. In this process, raw bananas are first pureed and then sprayed into a hot air chamber, where the moisture is rapidly evaporated, leaving behind a fine powder. This method preserves the raw banana's natural nutrients, flavor, and color while providing a shelf-stable product that retains many of the health benefits of fresh bananas.
Baby Food & Porridges: Raw banana powder is an excellent ingredient for making baby food or porridge. Simply mix it with water, milk, or a milk alternative to create a nutritious, easily digestible meal for infants.
Cereal & Granola: Stir the powder into breakfast cereals, granola, or muesli for added texture, flavor, and nutrients. It helps thicken liquids and provides a mild banana taste.
Soups & Sauces: Use spray-dried raw banana powder to thicken soups, sauces, and gravies. It adds natural starch and enhances the texture of savory dishes.
