Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 medium red beets
  • 2 medium golden beets
  • 1 –2 tsp olive oil or avocado oil
  • 1 tsp sea salt or celery salt
  • Optional seasonings: garlic powder dill, smoked paprika, black pepper
  • Optional finishing: pinch of maple syrup or flaky salt

Method
 

  1. Prep and Slice – Scrub and trim beets; slice 1/16-inch thick with a mandolin or sharp knife.
  2. Salt to Release Moisture – Toss slices with salt, rest 15–30 minutes, then drain liquid.
  3. Oil and Season – Lightly coat with oil; separate red and golden beets to protect color.
  4. Arrange and Bake – Place slices single layer on parchment-lined baking sheets. Bake at 300°F for 40–60 minutes, checking crispness at 45 minutes.
  5. Cool and Store – Cool completely on sheets; transfer to airtight containers. Re-crisp in the oven if needed.
  6. Optional Flavoring – Toss with garlic, dill, paprika, or a touch of maple for sweet-heat flavor.

Notes

Slice evenly, bake low-and-slow, and cool completely before storing. Adjust seasoning lightly, and re-crisp in a 300°F oven if chips soften. Thin slices give consistent, shatteringly crisp results.
