My mom has always said she has never met a potato she didn't like. Well, I guess I take after my mother because I love anything with potatoes - especially the bad stuff like french fries and chips. . . Thanks mama!

Luckily, I don't have to feel guilty when I feed my potato cravings with these homemade sweet potato chips. These are baked in the oven and not fried, but still come out crispy like the ones from a bag or at a restaurant.  The secret to getting them crispy is to soak them in ice water for 20 minutes after you slice them.

I recommend using a mandoline to slice your spuds - it makes it soooo much easier and quicker to get really thin pieces. I use a cheap handheld one I got at target- OXO brand - you can check out some affordable mandolines by clicking here if you are interested. If you don't have a mandoline, you can use a sharp chef knife to slice into 1/8 inch slices. I like to dip my chips is our Creamy Cucumber Ranch Dressing, which is a dairy free version of ranch you will not want to miss out on. Indulge away my friends...

Sweet Potato Chips (PRINT RECIPE)
Serves 4

Ingredients:
2 medium sweet potatoes, scrubbed with skins on
2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
½ teaspoon coarse sea salt
1/8 – ¼ teaspoon chili powder

Directions:
  1. Using a mandolin or sharp knife, slice potatoes into even 1/8 inch thick slices. 
  2. Place the potatoes in a large bowl, then cover with ice water and allow to soak for 20 minutes. 
  3. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  4. Rinse the chips and pat them dry. Then put them back into a clean bowl and add the oil, salt, and chili powder and toss until evenly coated. 
  5. Spread chips onto 2 parchment lined baking sheets in one even layer and bake for 20-30 minutes, flipping once until evenly browned.  NOTE: Some of your chips may be burnt and some still slightly soft depending on how evenly you were able to slice the potatoes. Don’t worry; the softer ones will get crunchier once they cool. 
6.      Remove from oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Happy Healthy Crunching!
