Stop buying overpriced bags of potato chips and start making your own at home. These Baked Potato Chips are easy to make and taste delicious.
My family likes potato chips, but I hardly ever buy them. Chips are definitely not a healthy snacksince they are fried. It is also expensive to buy a bag of chips thatonly contains a small amount of chips inside.I decided to make my own potato chips at home for a cheaper and healthier version. Making Baked Potato Chips are very easy to make especially if you have a mandolin slicer. You just need to clean the potatoes and slice them into 1/8 inch slices. Then toss the potato slices in olive oil and season with salt. Place the potato slices on a tray andbake in the oven until crispy. It’s that easy and they taste delicious. Your family will love these Baked Potato Chips as a snack or to eatwith their sandwich at lunch.

I remember deep-frying potatoes to make chips when I was a kid, but I’ve definitely grown up and these baked potato chips look so much more appetizing.
- Allison says
I’m not sure why, but my potatoes have required over 45 minutes to get crispy and I’ve had to turn up the heat as well and I am still baking them. 18 minutes was not even close to enough time. I followed the directions, but will be prepared next time to give myself a lot more time to bake them.
- Allie says
It sounds like they were sliced too thick. They should only be an 1/8 inch thick. I definitely recommend a mandolin slicer for getting evenly cut, measured slices.

I made these chips, following all the directions, but after the 18 minutes half of the chips were fully brown and tasted burnt, and the other half still had uncooked patches. The only things I did differently were that I used a Silpat instead of paper (which shouldn’t make a difference) and I only did one sheet of chips instead of two. What did I do wrong?
- Allie says
It sounds like the potatoes weren’t the same thickness. If you use a mandolin slicer, all your slices will be even and they will all be the same thickness.
The nonstick silicone mat probably would make a slight difference on cooking time and browning, but I wouldn’t think it would significant. - Sarah says
I had the same problem and used a mandoline to make the slices. I tried a couple of batches; the first time I followed the recipe and the other I went rogue. I had the same blotchy results every time 🙁

You need to soak in cold water for 30 min. To take out starch then dry on paper towels
- Monica says
I had the same problem. Will try soaking and drying next time!
- Keisha Davis says
Mine burnt on one side and the other was uncooked. I used a slicer and I think they were too thin. Better luck next time.

Looks really good. I haven’t made such chips before. Looks like a must try. Scheduled for Pinterest share.
