Who doesn’t like chips? Most everybody does, right? They don’t have to be fatty and greasy. These are delicious and can be made easily too. I have more of a sweet tooth, but my husband loves potato chips. He always has a bag of Kettle Chips in the house. Hopefully, he will just eat my healthy version from now on. They did disappear pretty fast!
I did two batches of these. One in the oven and one in the food dehydrator. Both came out great and my kids loved them. We made more the next day. If you eat a whole bunch, who cares? They are healthy. It’s like eating a whole tray of Kale Chips. Delicious and guilt free.
Healthy Sweet Potato Chips
1 sweet potato
1 T coconut oil melted
sea salt
Preheat oven to 200. Peel the sweet potato and slice it thin. I used a mandoline for this. Line a couple baking baking sheets with parchment. Place the chips on the baking sheet. Using a brush, brush a small amount of oil onto each chip. Sprinkle with sea salt. Bake for about 2-3 hours. Check on them often as everyone’s oven is different. I didn’t have to shake mine at all. I just let them cook and I would touch them every so often to see how crisp they felt. That’s it.
I have both dehydrator and oven, which was your preferred method? Thanks.
I actually liked the oven turn out better.
I love how you used coconut oil! They look just delicious (no surprise) and I can’t wait to try the recipe. Thank you for sharing. I hope you have a bright and happy weekend!
You are so welcome! I hope you enjoy them and have a wonderful weekend as well.
I LOVE baked sweet potato chips! I always make them with olive oil, but I bet they are delicious with the sweet coconut oil!
They are so good! I have never tried them with olive oil. I bet that is good too!
I’m going try this. I purchased organic Trader Joe’s coconut oil and haven’t try it as of yet. I love sweet potatoes. I have been making sweet potato chips paper thin with an attachment on my food processor. Then frying in olive oil. they are good, but cook really fast and I burn quite a few.
I’m going to try your method and I will let you know how I did. Thx.
Great! I just brush a super thin layer of oil on them just to get the sea salt to stick. I hope you enjoy my version.
Thanks for sharing! I happen to have a mandoline, a sweet potatoe and coconut oil so i will make those this afternoon! One question: did you put the oil on both sides or just on top?
I just brushed the tops with a small amount of oil to make sure the sea salt stuck.
These look awesome! Might have to try them this afternoon. Is the oven temperature in Fahrenheit?
Thanks and yes it is.
How long would you say a batch of these would stay fresh?
Probably a few weeks. Ours didn’t last the day. lol.
I didn’t figure they did! I would like to make a big batch so I could have some for a few days.
Thanks for these. I love sweet potatoes! I might sprinkle with a little cinnamon and sugar to see how those taste. I’ve noticed some burger places are now offering sweet potato fries as an alternate to regular fries. Yum!
I bet cinnamon and sugar would be amazing on these. Please report the results if you try that!
They were ridiculously good. The smell of the coconut oil wafting in the house was an added beachy bonus!
