Air Fryer Beet Chips (Print Version)
Thinly sliced beets air fried to crisp perfection with olive oil and seasoning for a wholesome snack.
# What You'll Need:
→ Vegetables
01 -
2 medium fresh beets, peeled, very thinly sliced (about 1/32 to 1/16 inch thick)
→ Seasonings
02 -
1 tablespoon olive oil
03 -
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
04 -
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
05 -
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Peel the beets and, using a mandoline slicer, cut into ultra-thin, uniform slices approximately 1/32 to 1/16 inch thick to ensure even cooking and crisp texture.
02 -
In a large bowl, gently toss the beet slices with olive oil, sea salt, black pepper, and optional garlic powder until each slice is evenly coated for balanced flavor and proper crisping.
03 -
Place beet slices in a single non-overlapping layer inside the air fryer basket. If necessary, air fry in batches to prevent overcrowding and ensure crispness.
04 -
Set the air fryer to 325°F. Cook beet slices for 12 to 15 minutes, shaking or flipping halfway through. Remove chips that crisp sooner, continuing until all slices are crisp but not burnt.
05 -
Transfer chips to a wire rack and allow to cool for 3 to 5 minutes to enhance crispness. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container up to 2 days.
# Additional Notes:
01 -
Using a mandoline ensures uniform thin slices for optimal crispness.
02 -
Do not overcrowd the air fryer; cook in batches for even air circulation.
03 -
Let chips cool slightly before evaluating texture, as residual heat finishes crisping.
