Air Fryer Veggie Chips
These air fryer veggie chips are crispy, delicious, and a healthier alternative to regular potato chips. I love using colorful beets and potatoes with just a little seasoning to bring out their natural flavors. Whenever I am craving something crunchy but still wholesome, these are just what I need.

- 1 large carrot peeled

Instructions

Cup of Yum
First batch
- Return the sweet potato slices to a dry bowl. Toss them with two teaspoons of olive oil and seasoning until evenly coated.
- Place sweet potato slices in the air fryer, slightly overlapping. Cook for 20 to 25 minutes, shaking often and removing chips as they crisp.
Second batch
- While the sweet potato chips cook, slice the red and golden beets thin using a mandoline. Toss with two teaspoons of oil and seasoning until evenly coated.
- Add beet slices to the air fryer and cook for about 30 minutes, flipping often and removing as they turn crispy.
Third batch
- For the final batch, season the dried white potatoes and sliced carrots. Cook in the air fryer for about 30 minutes, flipping often and removing slices as they crisp.
Mix
- Combine the crispy potatoes, carrots and beet chips in a large bowl. Taste and add more seasoning if needed, then serve immediately.
Notes
- The key to making the best Air Fryer Veggie Chips is slicing the vegetables thin and evenly while keeping the air fryer at the right temperature. If the slices are too thick, they will not crisp up properly, and if they are uneven, some will burn while others stay soft. I always use a mandoline to get uniform slices and set the air fryer to 320°F to ensure every chip turns out perfectly crispy and light.
- If I do not have a mandoline, I use a slicer or a sharp knife to get even slices.
- I always cook in small batches and spread them in a single layer so they crisp up faster.
- Using a high-smoke-point oil like avocado, canola, olive, or grapeseed oil helps prevent burning.
- I keep a close eye on them and remove each chip as it finishes cooking to avoid burning.
- For easy seasoning, I toss the chips in a paper bag with the seasoning and shake until they are well coated.
