Roasted beet chips are a delicious and healthy snack that showcases the natural sweetness and vibrant color of beets. These crispy, thin slices are baked until perfectly crunchy, making them a fantastic alternative to traditional potato chips. Packed with nutrients and antioxidants, roasted beet chips are not only satisfying but also add a beautiful pop of color to any appetizer platter or snack bowl. Easy to prepare and full of flavor, they are a guilt-free treat that everyone will love.
Ingredients:
- 2 medium beets, peeled and thinly sliced (about 1/8 inch thick)
- 1-2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Optional seasonings: garlic powder, paprika, or your favorite herbs
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a mixing bowl, toss the thinly sliced beets with olive oil, salt, and any additional seasonings you desire, ensuring the slices are evenly coated.
3. Arrange the beet slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they do not overlap for even cooking.
4. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-30 minutes, flipping the chips halfway through, until they are crispy and slightly curled. Keep an eye on them towards the end of the cooking time to prevent burning.
5. Once done, remove the beet chips from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes; they will continue to crisp up as they cool.
6. Enjoy your roasted beet chips as a tasty snack on their own or with your favorite dip!
