FAQs
Can I use fresh carrots instead of pre-cut chips?
Yes, you can slice fresh carrots thinly using a mandoline or knife, but the cooking time may vary slightly. Be sure to cut them thin for the best crispness.
What if I don’t have an air fryer?
You can bake the carrot chips in a conventional oven at 425 degrees F for about 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crisp and golden.
