Tips for making Homemade Sweet Potato Chips:
You can make these Sweet Potato fries as thick or as thin as you’d like. The thinner you cut them, the crispier they’ll be!
I think I will make them a bit thinner next time I make these (I will be making these again…and again…and again). they worked out just fine about about 1/4 inch thick…but I think I would like them better slightly thinner/crispier.
I found that after baking the chips for 10 minutes on each side, it worked best to then broil them on high for a couple minutes (watch them carefully or they will get really burnt) this just amps up the crispiness a bit and makes them even tastier!
If you love potato chips, expand your horizons with these Homemade Sweet Potato Chips. I have a feeling you’ll love them as much as we do.
