When the raw slices are baked, they will shrink considerably, so use large beets.

　　

Ingredients

Serves 2-4

　　2 pounds large beets, peeled

　　2 tablespoons olive oil

　　Sea salt

　　Freshly cracked black pepper

　　

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°. Line several baking sheets with parchment paper.

　　

Step 2

Using a mandoline, thinly slice beets to a thickness of 1/16". In a large bowl, toss beet slices with oil to coat evenly.

　　

Step 3

On prepared baking sheets, in a single layer, arrange as many slices as will fit without crowding. Bake until crisp, 25-30 minutes, rotating pans once halfway through baking. Cool chips and blot with paper towels to remove any excess oil. Repeat, using a cool prepared baking sheet for each batch, until all beet slices are baked.

　　

Step 4

Toss chips with 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste.
