Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Use a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife to slice the potatoes into thin, even slices, about 1/8 inch thick.
Place the potato slices in a large bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 10 minutes. This helps remove excess starch and makes the chips crispier.
Drain the potato slices and blot them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to remove moisture.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, salt, garlic powder, paprika, and black pepper. Add the potato slices to the bowl and toss them to ensure they are evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
Arrange the seasoned potato slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. It may be necessary to cook in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
Air fry the potato slices for 10 minutes, then flip them over and continue to cook for another 5-10 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
Remove the chips from the air fryer and allow them to cool for a few minutes. The chips will continue to crisp up as they cool.
Serve the vegan crispy air-fried chips as a snack or a side dish. Enjoy them on their own or with your favorite vegan dip.
