Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 3 each beets large, sliced thin
  • 1 each sweet potato large, sliced thin
  • 2 sprigs thyme removed and chopped
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil extra virgin
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375 F (190 C)
  • Toss thinly-sliced sweet potatoes in the large bowl and coat lightly with olive oil. Season with thyme, salt and pepper. Place sweet potato slices on a second baking sheet. Take care not to overlap the slices.
  • Pour thinly-sliced beets in the large bowl and coat lightly with olive oil. Season with thyme, salt and pepper. Place beet slices on a baking sheet. Take care not to overlap the slices. If you don’t want your hands to be stained pink, now would be a great time to wash them!
  • Bake beet and sweet potato slices in the oven until crisp. These chips do burn easily, so start watching them very closely once you hit the 15 minute mark.
  • Remove chips from the oven and let them cool on the sheet.
  • Serve with fresh thyme, sea salt and fresh ground pepper or another garnish of your choice. Enjoy!

Notes

If you cut your slices too thick, they may start to brown yet remain soft in the middle after cooling. This is easily the most common error when it comes to baking chips. You have a couple of options here. You could just eat them immediately as a roasted beets & sweets side dish or stuff them in a taco with some black beans, shredded cabbage and avocado. However, if you’re like us, you probably want actual beet and sweet potato chips. For the rest of us, I recommend a dehydration protocol. Heat your oven to back up to 200-250 degrees and let them hang out in the heat until they crisp up. Check in on them frequently, as you want them to be crisp… but not tough!
