Easy and Crispy Oven Baked Potato Chips
Make your own crispy potato chips in less than 20 minutes - with only four simple ingredients there are easier and healthier ways to indulge than reaching for the commercial snacks at your local store. This recipe gives you a small bowl of delicious golden brown and crispy chips.
Ingredients
- 250 g potatoes (waxed) about 2 medium potatoes
- 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tbsp thyme spice
- sea salt flakes
Instructions
- While you prepare the potato chips, preheat your oven to 200 degrees celcius (392 degrees fahrenheit), fan bake setting.
- Wash the potatoes.
- Use a potato peeler or a mandoline slicer to slice the potatoes really thin. If you don`t have either of these at hand you can also use a sharp knife. If you use a knife make sure to watch the thickness of the potato slices, the slices should be so thin that they bend and are almost see-through.
- Add the thin slices of potato to a small bowl. Add in the olive oil and thyme and mix well. The recipe gives you just enough oil to make sure that both sides of the potato slices have oil and spice on them.
- Spread the sliced potatoes covered in oil and herbs on two baking treys covered in parchment paper. Make sure that the potato slices are lying in a single layer, the potato slices should not be lying on top of each other.
- Bake in the oven for 9 minutes until the chips are golden and crispy. Keep a close eye on the potato chips during the last two minutes of the baking time, to make sure that they dont get over-baked.
- The potato chips cool down really fast in room temperature - and they are also delicious if you eat them right away, while hot.
