These Air Fryer Potato Chips are crispy, delicious and so easy to make! Make this healthier version in your air fryer with just 3 ingredients and snack away!
Peel potatoes and slice them thinly using a knife or a mandolin. If your knife skills are good, you can slice them thinly, so each slice is so thin, it’s almost see-through. If you have a mandoline and would prefer to use that, adjust it to about 1/16″ and slice.
4 small Russet potatoes
Place slices in a large bowl and cover with water. Soak the potato slices for 20 to 30 minutes. See note.
Line a large sheet with paper towels and dry the slices on both sides.
Place potatoes in a clean bowl, drizzle with oil and season with salt. Toss to coat.
2 teaspoons olive oil, ½ teaspoon salt
Preheat air fryer to 350° F for 4 minutes.
Spread potato slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket or rack.
Cook for 12 minutes. Flip the chips and bake for 3 to 5 minutes more. This will depend on how thick you cut the slices. Some chips will be done after the first 12 minutes. Just remove them into a bowl and cook the rest.
Remove from air fryer and place in a bowl.
Serve.
Notes
Soaking in water helps remove the starch from potato slices. It prevents sticking and helps create perfectly crispy chips.
Keep in mind, that thinner slices will cook faster. Try to keep them the same thickness, as much as possible.
