Homemade Potato Chips

Homemade potato chips

Ingredients

  • 2 medium baking potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or cooking spray
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Wash the potatoes thoroughly. An adult should slice them very thinly using a sharp knife or mandoline.
  3. Place the potato slices in a large bowl and toss with the olive oil until lightly coated.
  4. Arrange the slices in a single layer on a baking sheet. Sprinkle with the salt.
  5. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, turning once halfway through if desired, until the chips are golden brown and crisp.
  6. Allow the chips to cool for a few minutes before serving. They will become crispier as they cool.
Knife Safety: Thinly slicing potatoes is easier with a mandoline, but this tool is very sharp. An adult should use the mandoline or slice the potatoes with a sharp knife before children continue with the recipe.
