Notes

Preheat your air fryer before adding the pickle chips to ensure they cook evenly and get crispy.
Use a light coating of oil spray on the chips to help the breadcrumbs crisp up without making them soggy.
Don’t overcrowd the basket; cook in small batches to allow hot air to circulate and crisp every chip perfectly.
Flip the pickle chips halfway through cooking for an even golden-brown finish on both sides.
Panko bread crumbs can be an option for breading.
