How To Make Air Fryer Pasta Chips

Begin by boiling the bowtie pasta per the box’s instructions. Drain pasta and pat dry.

Place the pasta in a bowl with the oil and gently rotate the pasta with your hands, so all pasta is covered in the oil. Move pasta to a colander to drain or strain to drain all excess oil.

Spray air fryer basket. Place pasta in a single layer at the bottom of the basket. Air fry at 375 degrees F, air fryer setting, for 5-10 minutes.  Pasta chips are done when they are golden brown. Move pasta chips to a plate and immediately season with spices. Serve with a marinara sauce for dipping and enjoy!

Pro Tips:

• This recipe will work with any pasta, and my favorites are ziti, bow tie, and even penne. Try to use a medium-size pasta, which will be easier to pick up with tongs.
• Do not overcrowd the basket. For this recipe to work, you really want to ensure that the hot air around the basket can flow in and out, so the pasta chips get crispy! No soggy chips wanted here!
• Spray your basket with a cooking spray or use a parchment line liner to ensure they do not stick to the air fryer basket or tray.
• Shake your basket several times during the cooking process, so all your Air Fryer Pasta Chips get evenly cooked.
• You do not need a lot of oil to perfectly cook these up. You really want them to be thinly coated, so they start to crisp up.
• This recipe will work in any Air Fryer basket or oven model, including the Ninja Foodi, Instant Pot Vortex, Instant Pot Crisp Lid, and even the Mealthy Lid. The recipe will work the same. The time will vary by a few minutes.
• You can use any seasoning mix, and I love a great Italian seasoning on mine, which is What I used, by you can use your favorite.

What if I don’t have an air fryer? Can I bake them?

Absolutely, remember that anything that you make in the air fryer can easily make in the oven, and vice versa.

Cook the pasta as directed in the recipe below and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Place the baking sheet into a preheated oven at 400 degrees F for 15 to 20 minutes, remove when golden brown.

Are they hard to bite into like raw pasta?

No, if you have ever tried to bite into raw pasta, you will determine it’s tough to chew.

This has the consistency and texture of potato chips and pretzels. They are a great treat, snack, or dessert!
