Baked Cinnamon Sweet Potato Chips
These sweet potato chips are easy to make and bursting with flavor. The combination of cinnamon and the natural sweetness of the potatoes creates a delightful snack that’s perfect for any time of the day.
Ingredients:
- 2 medium sweet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Optional: 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper for a spicy kick
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Wash and peel the sweet potatoes. Using a sharp knife or a mandoline, slice the sweet potatoes thinly (about 1/8 inch thick). The thinner you slice them, the crispier they’ll become.
- In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato slices with olive oil, ensuring they are evenly coated.
- Add the brown sugar, ground cinnamon, salt, and cayenne pepper (if using) to the bowl. Mix well until the sweet potato slices are thoroughly coated with the seasoning mix.
- Spread the sweet potato slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure not to overcrowd them. This will allow them to bake evenly and become crispy.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, flipping the slices halfway through the baking time. Keep an eye on them to avoid burning, as cooking time can vary based on your oven and the thickness of the slices.
- Once they are golden brown and crispy, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Enjoy your homemade baked cinnamon sweet potato chips!
These chips are not only a fantastic snack but can also be a great addition to a cheese platter or served alongside your favorite dip. Get creative, and enjoy your flavorful, healthy treat!
