Crispy Air Fryer Potato Chips

What a simple way to make your own Crispy Air Fryer Potato Chips. It’s amazing how many chips one potato can make. It makes me wonder why they charge so much for a bag of potato chips. These were so delicious and healthier than store bought.

Ingredients

  • 1 medium potato
  • 1 Tbsp. vegetable oil
  • salt to taste 
  • spray oil (for the basket)

Directions

  1. Peel and thinly slice a medium potato. I used a mandoline slicer but a knife will work too.
  2. Soak potato slices in cold water for 20-30 minutes, drain then pat them completely dry with paper towels.
  3. Place the potato slices in a bowl, toss with 1 Tbsp. of vegetable oil and salt to taste.
  4. Spray the basket with cooking oil and preheat your air fryer to 390º for 3 minutes then place the potato slices in the basket.
  5. Air fry for 5 minutes then toss. Air fry another 5 minutes and toss. Air fry for 3 minutes and toss then continue air frying until they get as crisp as you like. Depending on the air fryer and the size of the chips, time will vary so watch them carefully after 13 minutes.

  1. I will have to try this. I wonder if it will be easy to make salt and vinegar chips as well…. Oooo and I love dill potato chips might have to try some dill weed as well.

  2. And it’s self-limiting. You can only make so much at one time as opposed to hunkering down with a family sized bag. Quality over quantity!

  3. Potato chips are my weakness and another reason to buy an Air Fryer!

    I can only imagine how fun it will be to spice these over time.

      • I’m a huge potato chip fanatic. It is my greatest weakness. 🙂 I do love the idea of making my own chips and seasoning them myself. The recent flavour I tried from Miss Vickie’s (do you get these in the US?) is Spicy Ketchup. I could get lost in the fun of experimentation!

  4. heeheehee I got the giggles with “Air fry for 5 minutes then toss. Air fry another 5 minutes and toss. Air fry for 3 minutes and toss then continue air frying until they get as crisp as you like.”

    There wouldn’t be any left if you keep “tossing” them (away) HeeHee

    • Soaking them helps remove some of the starch which helps them to brown better. I have made them without soaking and they are still good but tend to stick to each other more.

  5. Oh, when I see “air fryer” in your posts’ headline, I know I’m going to see a delicious recipe! And true … here it is … healthier than those bags you buy in the shops … winner!

    • I very rarely have something that doesn’t turn out delicious, however, I just finished breaded mushrooms that I cooked in the air fryer and wasn’t that crazy about them. They tasted fine but didn’t get that golden brown I wanted and you know what they say, you eat with your eyes first. lol
