How to Make Beet Chips in Air Fryer
Learning how to make beet chips in the air fryer is super easy! Just follow my step-by-step instructions to get started.
Step 1: Prepare the beets
Start by washing and peeling the beets, then slice them into thin rounds using a sharp knife or Mandoline Slicer. Toss with a bit of olive oil and sea salt.

Beetroot Chips In Air Fryer Pro Tips
- Choose Fresh Beets: Start with fresh beets that are firm and free from blemishes. The fresher the beets, the better the flavor and texture of your chips.
- Uniform Slices: For even cooking, use a mandoline slicer or sharp knife to slice the beets into thin, even rounds.
- Dry the Beets: Pat the beet slices dry with paper towels to remove excess liquid.
- Coat with Oil: Toss with a small amount of oil to enhance their flavor and give them a crispy texture.
- Adjust Seasoning: Try different herbs and spices when making your beetroot chips in the air fryer. This not only adds variety but allows you to customize the flavor to your taste.
- Single Layer: Arrange the slices in an even layer and do your best not to overcrowd the air fryer basket. If there isn’t enough room for the hot air to circulate, your chips won’t crisp up!
- Flip Often: Flip the chips every 3 minutes so they cook evenly.
- Keep a close eye on the chips in the last few minutes of cooking as they can burn easily.
- Cool Before Serving: Let your chips sit for a few minutes to allow them to crisp up even more before serving.
- Storage: If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container to keep them crispy.
