Ingredients

For this recipe, I used locally grown sweet potatoes and carrots. I added a few thin slices of onion as well.

Directions

I washed and dried the sweet potatoes and carrots well, then peeled them. I tossed the peels with the spices in a bowl with a little bit of cooking spray. Then I placed them in the air fryer and set the time for 8 minutes, and temperature to 275 Fahrenheit. Halfway through, I removed the tray and tossed them to prevent them from cooking unevenly.

After 8 minutes, I checked to make sure the skins looked firm and crispy. Then I transferred the skins to a bowl.

The recipe is possibility the easiest health snack ever!
