Homemade Gluten-Free Potato Chips
These homemade gluten-free potato chips are a delicious and healthy snack option. Using an air fryer, you can enjoy crispy, flavorful chips without the guilt of frying. Perfect for satisfying your cravings while maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
Ingredients
- 1 lb medium russet potatoes, washed
- 2 tsp vinegar
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- Salt for sprinkling
Instructions
- Using a mandolin slicer, thinly slice your potatoes to about 1/16-inch thickness for even cooking.
- Place the slices in a large bowl and cover with cold water. Add the vinegar to the water and refrigerate the bowl for 30 minutes. This step removes starch for crunchier chips.
- Preheat your air fryer to 325°F while the potato slices are soaking.
- Drain the potatoes and rinse them under cold water until the water runs clear, ensuring the starch is fully removed. Pat them completely dry with a clean kitchen towel.
- Transfer the dry potato slices to a large bowl and toss with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt (unless you're salting after cooking, as noted in the tips below).
- Lay the slices in the air fryer basket in two overlapping layers. Avoid overcrowding as it can prevent even cooking.
- Air fry the potatoes for 10-15 minutes, flipping every 2-2.5 minutes to ensure even browning. Look for chips that have achieved a light golden color.
- Remove each chip as soon as it's crispy and golden brown. Repeat with remaining batches as needed. Allow the chips to cool slightly for the perfect crunch.
