Recipes AirfryerAir Fryer Sweet Potato Chips
Thin, crunchy air fryer sweet potato chips with crisp edges and a hint of thyme — a wholesome swap for the bagged kind, with almost no oil. They're the kind of snack you can't stop reaching for.
Slice thin, season, and let the air fryer crisp them up. Great on their own or with a dip.
Ingredients
Instructions
Slice thin
Scrub the sweet potato (leave the skin on) and slice it into very thin rounds, ideally with a mandoline for even chips.
Season
Toss the slices with the olive oil, thyme, salt and pepper.
Air fry
Arrange in a single layer (work in batches) and air fry at 360°F for about 15 minutes, flipping and rearranging a couple of times, until crisp.
- Slice as thin and even as possible — thickness is everything for crispy chips.
- They crisp more as they cool, so pull them just before fully golden.
- A single layer is a must; overlapping chips steam instead of crisping.
Frequently asked
How do you make crispy sweet potato chips in the air fryer?
Slice very thin and even, use a light coat of oil, cook in a single layer at 360°F, and rearrange a few times.
Why are my chips chewy, not crispy?
They're sliced too thick or packed too close. Go thinner and cook in smaller batches.
What's the difference between chips and fries?
Chips are thin rounds cooked crisp through; fries are thicker sticks that stay soft inside.
