If you're looking for a delicious and healthy snack, look no further than air fryer plantain chips. These golden, crispy delights offer a delightful crunch that rivals traditional potato chips, but with a unique flavour that’s hard to beat.
To make the best air fryer plantain chips, start with ripe plantains—those that have turned a vibrant yellow with a few dark spots are ideal. Slice them thinly, about a quarter of an inch, for an optimal crisp. Toss the slices in a light drizzle of olive oil, and season with a pinch of sea salt, or try a sprinkle of paprika for a smoky twist.
Preheat your air fryer to around 180°C (350°F), then arrange the plantain slices in a single layer in the basket. Cook them for approximately 10-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking. The result? A batch of crunchy, flavourful plantain chips that can be enjoyed on their own or paired with your favourite dips. Perfect for sharing at a gathering or savouring as a guilt-free snack during the day, these air fryer plantain chips are sure to become a staple in your kitchen.
