Baked Carrot Chips

Ingredients

  • 1 pound carrots 

  • 2 Tbsp olive oil, or melted coconut oil

  • 1  1/2 teaspoons sea salt

  • 1/2  teaspoon ground cumin

  • 1/2  teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a large baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.

  • Trim the carrot tops off. Starting on the thick end slice the carrots paper-thin on the bias to create elongated slices. You can do this with a chef's knife, but it's better to use a mandolin slicer on the smallest setting. When you get down to the thin end, stop and save them to use in soup or salad.

  • Place the carrot slices in a large bowl and add the oil, salt, cumin, and cinnamon. Toss well to thoroughly coat. Then lay the slices in a single layer on the baking sheets.

  • Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the edges start to curl up and turn crisp. Then flip all the chips over and bake another 5-8 minutes to crisp the bottoms. Once cool, store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
