Ingredients
Method
- Preheat oven to 425°F (or 325°F for no-flip method).
- Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Trim carrot tops, then slice carrots paper-thin on the bias using a mandoline or sharp knife.
- Place carrot slices in a large bowl and add oil, salt, cumin, and cinnamon. Toss well to coat.
- Spread slices in a single layer on baking sheets.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes until edges begin to curl and crisp.
- Flip chips and bake for another 5–8 minutes until fully crisp.
- Cool completely before storing.
- 📝 Note: If using 325°F, bake for ~30 minutes without flipping. Center pan chips may need slightly more time in older ovens.
Notes
- Slice Consistently: Use a mandoline slicer for uniform thickness to ensure even baking and a crisp texture.
- Watch Your Oven: Ovens vary some chips may crisp faster than others. Remove browned chips early to avoid burning.
- No Flip Option: For an easier method, bake at 325°F for about 30 minutes without flipping. Chips won’t be quite as vibrant but will still be crisp.
- Vinegar Tip: For a stronger salt & vinegar flavor, soak carrot slices in vinegar for 15 minutes before tossing with oil and spices.
- Customize Flavor: Get creative with seasonings try smoked paprika, garlic powder, or a sweet cinnamon-sugar combo.
