Beet Chips

from ButterYum

Ingredients

  • Beets, washed and sliced very thin using a mandolin slicer (about 1/16-inch thick)

  • olive oil

  • salt and pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400F.

  2. Wash and dry beets (no need to peel them).

  3. Slice the beets very thin using a mandolin slicer (I used setting #2 on the small slicer shown below).

  4. Mist both sides of the sliced beets with olive oil spray.

  5. Place sliced beets in a single layer on cooling rack.

  6. Place cooling rack into a half sheet pan.

  7. Sprinkle sliced beets with salt and pepper.

  8. Bake for 30 minutes or until the beets shrivel and become crisp, being careful not to burn them (they're also excellent baked until brown around the edges and chewy).

  9. Remove from oven and cool completely.
