Hi Bold Bakers!

As much as I love baking up all kinds of treats sometimes I want a snack that is super easy. After sharing my recipe for Microwave Potato Chips you guys showed me that you love simple snacks too! Once I perfected the potato chip recipe I knew I had to do a follow up, another version with delicious Microwave Sweet Potato Chips!

My Microwave Sweet Potato Chips are unbelievable! This snack is both impressive and delicious. Your friends and family will not believe that you made these crispy chips at home and they will never know that you made them in minutes in the microwave! They are so crisp and crunchy and actually super healthy as they are made of just sweet potato and a touch of olive oil and salt.

You can use a peeler to get uber-thin slices of sweet potato if you don’t have great knife skills (or a good knife, like me) 🙂

Love your site and Facebook page. Just one question. Can this recipe be used with zucchini instead of the potato?
Thanks

Hi Gemma, thanks for the great idea! Even tho I’m a seasoned cooker, I managed to make every mistake possible on this very simple recipe, lol, but persisted & got at least a nice sized bowl of various seasoned chips to serve hubby tonight for the Super Bowl! I’ll do better next time!!

Perfect quick fix for a snack craving! I used white flesh sweet potato and also added smoked paprika to season the chips. It turned out great. Thanks for the recipe!

Don’t know what I did wrong but even after 30 sec intervals I didn’t get anything close to crispy or done

Hi. Can I leave the skins on sweet and normal potatoes if I wash the skins thoroughly, as I like the skins plus most of the vitamins and minerals are in the skins? Thanks

Hi Gemma, it’s really a good recipe. I cooked in microwave for 11 mins may due to low power. Just wandering to know if I can make it with mushroom in same method? Thanks
