Ingredients
Sweet Potato Chips
- 3 medium sweet potatoes
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (optional)
- ½ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 290°F (140°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Prepare Sweet Potatoes: Optional step – place the sweet potato slices in a bowl and toss them with a drizzle of olive oil for added crispness and flavor.
- Arrange Slices: Lay the sweet potato slices on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring the slices are touching each other for even baking.
- Bake: Bake the slices in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until they appear wrinkled and are well dehydrated. If your oven has a fan, you can bake two baking sheets at once.
- Season and Serve: Remove the chips from the oven, sprinkle with salt to taste, and serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
- Using olive oil is optional but helps achieve a crisper texture.
- Cut the sweet potato slices uniformly thin for even cooking.
- Keep a close eye during baking to prevent burning as oven temperatures can vary.
- Store leftover chips in an airtight container to maintain crispness.
