Here are three simple methods for making veggie chips: with the oven, the microwave and the air fryer. If you already have the ingredients at home, you could be eating homemade veggie chips within the hour. Itâs that easy!
Tips for vegetable chips: Preparation (Takes about 20 minutes)
Thereâs a good chance you already have everything you need for making veggie chips. If you have unused vegetables lying around, itâs time to turn them into a delicious snack. You can make chips out of sweet potatoes, carrots, parsnips, zucchini, beets or even kale.
If youâre expecting guests, try making chips from a few different vegetables. It wonât take much more work than if you were to just use one vegetable and it will make the final dish that much more colorful and interesting. Itâs also a great conversation starter!
Follow these tips for preparing different types of homemade veggie chips:
For zucchini chips, youâre likely to be dealing with more moisture. Squeeze as much as you can out of the slices with paper towels and leave them to dry for a bit longer between the sheets.
If youâre making kale chips, break the kale into chip-sized chunks and wash thoroughly. To dry your kale chips, dab with kitchen paper or use a salad spinner.
From measuring the ingredients to watching the perfect pasta be extruded from your pasta maker, making fresh pasta can be a wonderfully relaxing pastime to enjoy with the whole family. Whether by hand or by machine, the first step in learning how to make homemade ravioli is good dough. Letâs get to it!
Regardless of the method you use for making veggie chips, youâll need salt, pepper and spices, or herbs of your choice. Caraway seeds, fennel seeds, rosemary and chili powder are all solid bets. Experiment with a few seasoning combinations and youâll end up with a vegetable chips recipe that works for you. Check out our flavorful beet chips recipe for some inspiration!

Follow these tips for preparing different types of homemade veggie chips:
- For beet chips, youâll first need to remove any excess moisture from the vegetable. After slicing, toss your chips in a small amount of salt and oil, so as to simultaneously season and draw out excess moisture. If youâd rather not use salt, you can layer your sliced beets between sheets of kitchen paper to soak up the moisture.
- The method for making beet chips also works for other root chips, such as sweet potato, russet potato, parsnips and carrots. For root chips or other starchy vegetables, you can get your chips to turn out crispier by soaking the veggie slices in ice water for twenty minutes. Rinse them thoroughly afterwards. This should get rid of some of the starch.
For zucchini chips, youâre likely to be dealing with more moisture. Squeeze as much as you can out of the slices with paper towels and leave them to dry for a bit longer between the sheets.
If youâre making kale chips, break the kale into chip-sized chunks and wash thoroughly. To dry your kale chips, dab with kitchen paper or use a salad spinner.
