Apple does not support downgrading mobile device OS unless it is a beta version of software. —>
“Note that after a software update is installed for iOS, iPadOS, tvOS, watchOS, and visionOS, it cannot be downgraded to the previous version.”

Sorry, you cannot. There is no way to downgrade iOS versions.
If you are having issues with iOS 27, you can explain tem and someone ere may be able to help you resolve them.
