Ingredients
- Peels from 2 pounds Russet potatoes about 4 medium-sized potatoes
- Spritz of avocado oil spray or your preferred neutral-flavored oil
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Put potato peels into the air fryer basket in a single layer. Spritz them with oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt.*
- Air fry at 400 degrees for 6 to 9 minutes. Stop once or twice to toss the peels with a spatula and give them another spritz of oil. Check on them during the last few minutes of cooking to make sure they get brown and crisp, but not burned.
- Serve right away with your favorite dipping sauces or toppings.
Notes
The peels shrink when they cook. So be careful not to over salt them.
The air fryer works best when it's not overcrowded. So if you have considerably more peels than called for in this recipe, air fry in batches for best results. However, once the air fryer is hot, the peels will likely cook faster too.
