My newest book, Vegan Cooking for Your Air Fryer, was released this week and I’m thrilled. If you don’t have an air fryer yet check out my post about different air fryers and their accessories here.
These bow tie chips are so crunchy and remind me of a cheese-cracker. But don’t worry it’s 100% vegan. No air fryer? Try baking them in the oven at 375 degrees until crisp.
Just cook the pasta half way, drain, and toss with the seasoning, then cook for about 10 minutes in your air fryer. Easy peasy!

Air Fryer Bow Tie Pasta Chips
This is such a cute snack and a nice change of pace from pretzels and chips. The pasta crisps up and the flavors remind me a little of an Italian-style cheese cracker.

Servings: 2 cups
Calories: 294kcal

Instructions
- Cook the pasta for 1/2 the time called for on the package. Toss the drained pasta with the olive oil or aquafaba, nutritional yeast, Italian seasoning, and salt.

JoAnn M Lakes says
I have to make these! These are something I would have never thought of in a million years!!!
Jenn says
I agree with JoAnn. I only have white bowtie noodles on hand–do you think they’d work the same? Where do you get whole wheat ones? I haven’t seen them in a store, and I’m not sure I’d go to the trouble to track them down and order them online. Maybe another shape (penne? fusilli?) would work equally well?
Kathy Hester says
White bow ties will work too!
Jennifer says
I can’t get bow tie pasta that are whole wheat but I can get fusilli. Do you think they could work as well? Always looking for healthy snacks for my family and I will get a Philips airfryer for my birthday so soon I can start experimenting.
Kathy Hester says
They should work, but you may need to cook them a little more.
JRH says
I don’t have any yeast, so do you think this will still turn out ok? I’m not sure what the yeast does, so I’m not sure what to sub for it (if there’s even a sub). Thanks, JH
Kathy Hester says
It will be okay without it. It’s to add a cheesy flavor to the vegan chips.
Lovingred says
I almost didn’t even look at this recipe because the prep and cook time both say 10 hours 57 minutes…so you might want to change that. But I tried it and it is SOOOO GOOD! THANK YOU🤤
Kathy Hester says
Imported all the recipe into a new system, so there’s bound to be a bunch of mistakes. Let me know if you see any others. I’m going through everything but it will take awhile with 500 + recipes!
