Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and peel the carrots, then use a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife to slice the carrots into thin, even rounds, about 1/8-inch thick.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, sea salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and dried thyme.
Add the carrot slices to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
Spread the carrot slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they do not overlap.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, then gently flip the carrot slices using a spatula.
Continue baking for an additional 10 minutes, or until the edges are crispy and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and allow the chips to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes to crisp up further.
Transfer the cooled carrot chips to a serving platter or an airtight container for storage.
