Air Fryer Potato Chips

January 28, 2020 Amanda Plott

So, the air fryer has quickly become one of the most used gadgets in my kitchen lately. It’s not only a time saver when it comes to crispy-crunchy bites that I normally bake, but it’s also fun to play with and tends to get my usual faux fried things even more of the faux fried texture and taste!

These Air Fryer Potato Chips are no different. They’re made with just THREE ingredients and all of 30 minutes of cook time. The best part is that they are SO much better for you than the ones you buy at the store. Why? No preservatives and like I said… THREE ingredients. You can’t beat that!…

Air Fryer Parmesan Kale Chips

Oh, kale no…

These kale chips couldn’t be more simple or easy to make. They’re really one of my all time favorite snacks too. Other than being ridiculously cheap, they also end up being low calorie, vegetarian, gluten free, and keto friendly! The fun doesn’t stop there though, they’re also made with right at 5 ingredients. 5 whole simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand.

I used to be excited to see kale chips at the store, until I realized what they were charging for them. Excuse me? 8 bucks for a box of cheesy kale? No thanks! Kale started off as a bland green that was used to decorate buffets and salad bars. Now that it’s trendy, the prices have taken gotten out of control. So, I’ll make my own kale chips.

Baked Tortilla Chips

Being a Texan means that chips and salsa are basically served with every meal It’s a staple snack that can be found in just about any home and perfectly fits the bill. Whether is breakfast, lunch, or dinner! That being said, most store-bought chips out there are a lot of the same. Lots of salt and oil involved.

Recently I’ve found that making my own tortilla chips is not only crazy easy, it’s also WAY better for you. They’re made with just 2 ingredients and are baked. Meaning hardly any oil and YOU get to control the seasoning and salt that goes into them!…

'One Pot' Skinny Pumpkin Blondies

October 1, 2018 Amanda Plott

Out of all the desserts out there, I would have to say that blondies would be one of my favorites! I think it has to do with them being the ‘vanilla’ version of brownies, which is also another favorite. I love that blondies are a more dense and decadent ‘cake’ that almost always involve white chocolate in them.

These 'One Pot' Skinny Pumpkin Blondies are no different, except that they have the flavors of Fall in them. Including pumpkin and plenty of cinnamon goodness, and a few other warm spices!

Healthy Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies

May 9, 2018 Amanda Plott

A long, long time ago, when I was new to this wide world of cooking and sharing my recipes... I made these Healthy Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies for National Oatmeal Cookie Day. ...And boy-oh-boy am I ever glad that I did. This recipe right here has been on the top 10 most viewed recipes here for almost the entire existence of The Skinny Fork. There's a reason for that too. These cookies are AMAZING.

They are gluten-free, low-carb, vegetarian, vegan, and naturally GUILT FREE. It's a bonus too that they're so quick and easy to make. You will wonder from this point on how you ever lived without them.

Healthy cookies. Sounds like an oxymoron, right?…

Baked Beet Chips

March 1, 2018 Amanda Plott

Last week I had some beets leftover that needed to be used and decided to use them up in one of my favorite ways - as chips! Beets are really the perfect root vegetable to make chips with. They turn out crisp and crunchy while not having a completely overwhelming flavor. In fact, if you closed your eyes and ate one, you might not even know it was a beet at all!

Beets are truly one of my favorite vegetables, mostly because of their beautiful colors and versatility. I really don't think I've ever met a beet that I didn't like, but these chips are quick, easy, and simple; with just 2 ingredients needed...
