Air Fryer Carrot Chips are a nutritious and delicious snack. This delightful and easy air fryer recipe is perfect for anyone trying to eat more vegetables or wanting a low-calorie snack. If you are following the WW program this is a great Weight Watchers recipe.

WILL CARROTS BE CRISPY IN THE AIR FRYER?
The air fryer is a great tool to make foods crispier. It isn't magic though and not everything will turn out like it has been cooked by deep frying.
When I made air fryer carrot chips they turned out great. They weren't the crunchiest food I have ever eaten, but the result was lightly crisp and very good.
The key is getting a crispy result is to use some olive oil or avocado oil. If you don't add any oil at all you will not end up with crispy air fryer carrot fries.
My favorite oil is Pam Spray Pump Olive Oil and Pam Spray Pump Avocado Oil.
Remember, carrot chips are not the same as French fries. Carrots have a little different flavoring and are loved by anyone who is a fan of sweet potato fries.

HOW TO SEASON CARROT CHIPS
There are endless ways you can season your air fryer carrot chips.
My favorite seasoning right now is SEASONED SALT. It is one bottle of flavor.
I don't have to get a bunch of spice containers out…I just grab the seasoned salt, sprinkle some on the food, and boom. FLAVOR.
Here are some other ways to season the carrot chips:
- Another flavor that tastes great on carrots is Cajun seasoning. My favorite Cajun seasoning brand is Slap Ya Mama
. I have tried a bunch of different brands too..and always go back to this one!
- Paprika is a wonderful seasoning that brings some smokey flavor to your healthy snack.
- Garlic powder will add that garlicky flavor everyone loves.
- Try some Italian seasonings for a twist.
The bottom line is just experimenting with different seasoning combinations will result in a lot of new favorites.
DIPPING SAUCE IDEAS FOR AIR FRIED CARROT CHIPS
To keep this a truly healthy side dish or snack I would advise you to NOT use a lot of dip for your carrot chips. BUT…carrot chips do pair very nicely with many different types of dips.
Here are some dipping sauces to consider:
- Ranch dressing
- Spicy Mayo
- Ketchup
- Freddy's Fry Sauce
- Honey Mustard
HOW DO YOU CUT CARROT CHIPS?
I am not going to lie to you here. The grocery store sells bags of carrot chips that are already cut and I buy those.
If you have read my blog for very long you know that I LOVE shortcuts in the kitchen.
But if you want to cut your own carrot chips that is awesome.
I would advise you to peel the carrots and cut them into uniform slices that are the same thickness. I would make them as thin as you can for quicker cooking.
It is always fun to use a crinkle-cutting tool when you cut veggies so they have that wavy look.

INGREDIENTS FOR AIR FRYER CARROT CHIPS
How about a recipe with only 3 ingredients? Easy is always best!
- Carrots
- Seasoned Salt
- Olive Oil Spray (non-aerosol)
You can always add extra black pepper. If you aren't watching calories, you could sprinkle some Parmesan cheese on after the carrots are done air frying.
HOW TO MAKE CARROT CHIPS IN THE AIR FRYER
Remember that every air fryer is different and cook times can vary a lot. There is also a personal preference about how done you like your food. I like my veggies REALLY done!

STEP ONE: CUT CARROTS
If you didn't buy precut carrots then start off by washing, peeling, and cutting the carrots.
It is important to cut the carrots to the same thickness for consistent cooking.
STEP TWO: SEASON CARROTS
Put the carrots into a bowl and lightly spray them with olive oil spray.
I prefer to use the non-aerosol olive or avocado oil spray. You will use a LOT less oil than you would if you add it by the tablespoon.
Sprinkle the season salt on top and toss to coat the carrots evenly.

STEP THREE: AIR FRY
Lightly spray the air fryer basket with olive oil.
Add the carrot chips in an even single layer. Try not to overcrowd the basket so the carrots cook more evenly.
You may have to cook the carrots in batches depending on how big your air fryer is.
Air fry at 390°F for 6 minutes and then shake the basket. Spray a little more olive oil spray if desired. Continue cooking for an additional 3-6 minutes depending on how done you like your carrots.
Cook until they reach your desired level of crispiness.
Serve hot.

HOW TO BAKE CARROT CHIPS IN THE OVEN
If you prefer to bake your oven chips here are the directions for that cooking method.
- Preheat the oven to 450°F. Line a baking sheet with nonstick foil.
- Spread the carrots in a single layer on the baking sheet.
- Bake for around 20 minutes or until the carrots reach your desired level of crispiness. Watch smaller carrot slices closely. They may get done quicker and need to be removed before the rest of the batch.

You dont have a temperature listed for cooking the carrots at. It just says a time.

I love all the recipes I have seen on and that I got on my email I would love the cookbooks but only if they are free we are going through hard times right right now and living on only my husband’s SSI check and sometimes the bills don’t get paid on time or I don’t get my medication that month most of the time we don’t even get to buy grocery’’s due to the fact that we live check to check and as I said it doesn’t cover everything so if the cookbooks are free I would love to have them if not I will have to pass we have other more important things that we need
Hi Jill, unfortunately, the cookbooks are not free. It is too costly to give them away. Take care.
