Ash plantain flour is a type of flour made from Ash plantains that are not yet ripe, typically those which are less sweet, starchy and have higher water content. They are then peeled, sliced, and dried. After being dried, the plantain slices are ground into a fine powder. Born in Nature plantain flour is made from the best quality plantains which are dried and powdered mechanically at low temperatures in order to protect nutrients in it.

Dehydrated banana chips are made from ripe Cavendish bananas. They are sliced thin and then dehydrated to remove the moisture, resulting in a crunchy and sweet snack. Dehydration allows for a long shelf life and makes them a convenient on-the-go option. The best ripe Cavendish bananas are used to make Born in Nature Banana Chips, which are then dehydrated at lower temperatures using heat pump dryers to preserve both their sensory and nutritional qualities.
