Sure everyone can't resist a bowl of potato chips, but after awhile a standard chip can be a little boring. So why not switch up by creating these delicious and absolutely gorgeous sweet potato chips.

The natural, earthy sweetness of the potatoes add an another dimension of flavor that is lacking from a regular potato chip. And they are super simple to make! To make these sweet potato chips extra crispy, slice the potatoes as thin as you can (a mandoline is very helpful here!) The chips will also crisp up as they cool so don't feel like you have to keep baking or they will get too dark.

To store any leftovers, let them cool completely and add to an airtight container. They will last for about 4 to 5 days at room temperature.
