Ingredients
- 4 pieces large carrots
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoons smoked paprika
- 0.25 teaspoons ground black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Step 2
Wash and peel the carrots. Using a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer, cut the carrots into thin slices, about 1/16 to 1/8 inch thick, ensuring consistent thickness for even baking.
Step 3
In a large bowl, combine the carrot slices with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, and ground black pepper. Toss well to coat the carrot slices evenly with the seasoning and oil.
Step 4
Spread the carrot slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets. Ensure they do not overlap to allow even crisping.
Step 5
Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven. Bake for 15 minutes, then rotate the sheets and flip the carrot slices for even cooking.
Step 6
Continue baking for another 10-15 minutes, or until the carrot chips are sufficiently crisp and have started to brown slightly on the edges.
Step 7
Remove from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes—they will continue to crisp up as they cool.
Step 8
Serve immediately for the best texture, or store them in an airtight container once fully cooled to maintain their crispness.
