Super easy recipe today. So simple, in fact, that I’m not sure it can even be considered a recipe…
But, I feel like it is my duty to share something that is easy to make and so much cheaper and versatile than what you can find in stores. So… I present coconut chips!
And yes, technically this is just toasted coconut. BUT, they sell it in stores as coconut chips. So, for my intent and purposes, they’re chips.
And they are the perfect alternative for an chip and dip appetizer. Or for just eating by the handful. Whatever floats ya boat.
Note: Do yourself a favor though and stay near the oven while cooking these. Like, don’t even think of running to the bathroom. These chips will turn from white to brown within in a few seconds and then brown to black in another few. And burnt black chips are no fun…
Also, I like having a little heat on my chips, but feel free to switch up the spices!
Coconut Chips
Ingredients:
Coconut Flakes
garlic powder
curry powder
cayenne
salt and pepper
Directions:
Spread coconut on pan (no need to grease) in a single layer (it’s okay if there’s a bit of an overlap though). Add spices based on tasting preferences and toss. Bake at 350 for 4 minutes. Give a quick stir with a spatula and cook for 1 more minute. Let cool for 5 minutes to become crisp.
