Flourless pumpkin chips are a light, crispy, and tasty snack, perfect for those who love to munch without guilt.
They can be prepared in various ways: from crispy air fryer pumpkin to the classic oven-baked pumpkin chips.
If you love the aroma coming from the oven, don’t miss the crispy oven-baked pumpkin chips, thin and golden to perfection. But if you prefer speed, then the air fryer pumpkin chips are the ideal choice: in just a few minutes, you’ll have a healthy and tasty snack to enjoy in front of a movie or serve as an appetizer.
The first time I tried them, I cut them too thick and ended up with pumpkin cutlets instead of chips, but on the second try, they came out perfect and crispy, and they are really quick to prepare in the air fryer!
In short, whether you choose the oven-baked pumpkin chips or the “air fryer” version, the result will always be the same: a bowl full of goodness that will disappear in no time!

Steps to prepare flourless pumpkin chips
To prepare the delicious flourless pumpkin chips, WATCH THE VIDEO RECIPE
Choose a ripe and firm pumpkin.
I used the warzen orange, but you can use the mantovana, delica, violin, or butternut
Start by washing the pumpkin under running water. Cut it into 4 on a cutting board, remove the seeds and filaments, and slice it thinly with a mandoline.
For oven cooking, arrange the pumpkin slices in a single layer on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and season with salt, dried rosemary or chopped fresh, and a spray of extra virgin olive oil with the oil sprayer.
Bake at 392°F for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. The time varies based on the thickness of the slices; the thicker they are, the more time they need and vice versa. Therefore, monitor cooking after 10 minutes.
Place the slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket, season with fine salt, extra virgin olive oil, and dried or freshly chopped rosemary.
Cook at 392°F for about 10 minutes. Here too, monitor the cooking as the thicker they are, the more time they will take to cook and vice versa.
Once cooking is finished, place the chips on a rack to cool: they will harden slightly and become crispier as they cool.
Storage
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 24 hours. If they become soft, you can reheat them for 3–5 minutes in the air fryer or 5–8 minutes in a hot oven at 212–248°F
