Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash the potatoes thoroughly and slice them into thin rounds, about 1/8 inch thick, using a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife.
In a large bowl, add the chickpea flour, garlic powder, smoked paprika, ground black pepper, sea salt, and baking powder.
Gradually add water to the dry ingredients, whisking continuously until a smooth batter forms.
Add the potato slices to the batter and gently toss to coat all slices evenly.
Place the potato slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet without overlapping.
Drizzle olive oil over the coated potato slices and use a brush to ensure all chips have a thin layer of oil.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, then flip each chip to ensure even crisping on both sides.
Return to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes or until crispy and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the chips cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes for maximum crispiness.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container once completely cooled.
