Ingredients
Ingredients
- 2 large sweet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper to prepare for baking.
- Slice Sweet Potatoes: Wash and, if desired, peel the sweet potatoes. Using a mandoline or sharp knife, slice the potatoes into very thin rounds to ensure crispiness once baked.
- Season: In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato slices evenly with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper until every slice is well-coated with the spices and oil.
- Arrange on Baking Sheets: Lay the seasoned sweet potato slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets, making sure they do not overlap to allow for even crisping.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, flipping the slices halfway through the baking time. Bake until the chips are crisp and lightly browned around the edges.
- Cool: Remove the chips from the oven and let them cool slightly on the baking sheets. The chips will crisp up further as they cool.
Notes
- Slice the sweet potatoes as evenly as possible to promote uniform baking and crispness.
- Avoid overcrowding the baking sheets to ensure proper air circulation and even cooking.
- Store leftover chips in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days to maintain their crunch.
