Ingredients
- ½ pound pasta (of choice)
- ½ cup grated parmesan cheese (or vegan version for dairy-free)
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Pepper to taste
- Your favorite dipping sauce (optional)
Instructions
- Cook the Pasta: Boil the pasta according to package directions, then drain. Return pasta to the pot.
- Season the Pasta: Add grated parmesan cheese, olive oil, garlic powder, and pepper to the pasta. Toss well to coat evenly.
- Air Fry the Chips: Place half of the pasta in the air fryer basket, making sure not to overcrowd. Air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 10 minutes, tossing halfway through. Check for desired crispness, especially towards the end.
- Cool and Serve: Once crispy and golden brown around the edges (but not burned), remove the pasta chips from the air fryer and let cool for a few minutes to crisp up even more. Serve with your favorite dip!
Notes
- Air Fryer Tip: Check pasta every 60 seconds in the final few minutes to prevent burning. Cooking times may vary by air fryer.
- Make it Vegan: Swap in vegan parmesan to make this recipe dairy-free!
