Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium Cassava root
- 0.25 cup Coconut oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel the cassava root using a vegetable peeler. Rinse under cold water to remove any residue.
Using a mandoline slicer, slice the cassava into thin rounds, about 1/8 inch thick. Aim for uniformity to ensure even cooking.
Melt the coconut oil in a small saucepan over low heat just until it's liquid, then remove from heat.
In a large bowl, toss the cassava slices with the melted coconut oil to coat evenly.
Add sea salt, garlic powder, paprika, and black pepper to the bowl and toss again to coat the cassava slices thoroughly.
Arrange the cassava slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring there's minimal overlapping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, flipping the crisps halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet.
Once cooled, serve immediately or store in an airtight container to keep them crunchy.
