Ingredients

  • 1 cup assorted vegetables, thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
  • 1/8 tsp garlic powder

Instructions

  1. 1

    Wash and thoroughly dry all vegetables. Using a mandoline slicer or sharp knife, slice vegetables to create 1 cup thinly sliced assorted vegetables for optimal crispness.

  2. 2

    Place sliced vegetables in a large bowl. Pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture, which is crucial for achieving crispy chips.

  3. 3

    In a small bowl, combine 1 tbsp olive oil, 1/4 tsp salt, 1/8 tsp freshly ground black pepper, and 1/8 tsp garlic powder to create a seasoned oil.

  4. 4

    Drizzle the seasoned oil over the vegetable slices and toss gently with your hands to ensure even coating without breaking the delicate slices.

  5. 5

    Preheat the air fryer to 350°F for 3 minutes.

  6. 6

    Working in batches to avoid overcrowding, arrange vegetable slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Overcrowding will result in steaming rather than crisping.

  7. 7

    Air fry for 8-10 minutes, then check for crispness. Shake the basket and continue cooking for another 5-10 minutes until the edges are slightly browned and chips are crisp.

  8. 8

    Carefully remove chips from the air fryer as they can be fragile. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely - they will continue to crisp as they cool.

  9. 9

    Once cooled, serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
