Directions

1. Heat oven to 200°F with two racks.
2. Line two baking pans with parchment paper, and set aside.
3. Slice potato crosswise, as thin as possible.
4. Arrange the slices on the prepared sheets, and keep them from touching as much as possible.
5. Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper.
6. Cook for 50 minutes.
7. Slices will dehydrate and shrink; turn chips over, and rotate baking sheets if needed for even cooking.
8. Cook until slices are crisped and floated around the edges and the centers are still orange, not brown, 30 to 40 more minutes.
9. Transfer to cooling racks and cool chips on baking sheets.

NOTE: Chips will be soft when removed from the oven and will crisp as they cool. Store in an airtight container, at room temperature, up to 3 days.

That’s how quick and easy you can have this Baked Sweet Potato. You can have a mayonnaise or ketchup for your dip. But you can consume it directly without dips and still enjoy the delicious taste of sweet potatoes.

This recipe is best when shared with your loved ones while watching your favorite show. You can also serve this if you host a party or any gathering you have at home. Make sure you choose fresh potatoes to ensure a tasty treat.
