Air Fryer Pasta Chips Ingredients
Pasta: I chose rigatoni pasta to use in this recipe. However, you can use any shape of pasta you like! (I suggest using pasta that is simple to pick up with your fingers.) ) You could even make your own homemade shaped pasta. Simply make sure the noodles are cooked before adding them to the air fryer.
Can I Make Pasta Chips in the Oven?
Yes, you can still enjoy this snack if you don’t have an air fryer or just want to use the oven. Set the oven’s temperature to 425°F in order to prepare the pasta chips. As directed by the air fryer manufacturer, bake the cooked pasta for twenty to twenty-five minutes before adding the oil mixture and parmesan cheese. Even though the pasta won’t get as crispy, it will still taste great!
