Ingredients
  

  • 4 carrots
  • kosher salt to taste
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (optional, for crispier results)
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper (optional)
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder (optional)
  • 1/2 tsp paprika (optional)

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
  2. Thinly slice carrots into 1/16 inch rounds using a mandoline or knife.
  3. Toss carrot slices with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until evenly coated.
  4. Arrange seasoned carrot chips in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet, ensuring no overlap.
  5. Bake for 45 minutes, flipping halfway, until slightly browned and crisp.
  6. Let cool completely on the baking sheet to allow them to crisp further.

Notes

- For the crispiest carrot chips, ensure your slices are as thin and uniform as possible. A mandoline is your best friend here.
- Don't overcrowd the baking sheet. Use multiple sheets if necessary to give the chips space to breathe and crisp up evenly.
- If your chips aren't getting crispy, they might need a bit more time in the oven or a slightly higher temperature. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning. When I made my first batch, I pulled them too early thinking they were done, only to find them chewy. That extra 5-10 minutes makes all the difference for true crispness.
- Store cooled carrot chips in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3-4 days to maintain their crispness.
