Sweet Potatoes are one of my favorite vegetables. I like mashed sweet potatoes, sweet potato fries, and most recently I am obsessed with these sweet potato chips. They are super simple to make and only require a few extra ingredients and before you know it, you will have a crisp and crunchy snack to munch on! Plus they are a HUGE hit with kids, which is a total plus to this dish because they are eating vegetables without really thinking about it because I call them “sweet potato chips.”
They are quite easy to make you see, once you’ve gone ahead and peeled the skin off the sweet potato with a vegetable peeler, just keep peeling until you’re down to nothing! Throw them on a parchment lined baking sheet and you’re good to go. I’ve gone ahead and added shaved Parmesan, garlic salt, and paprika… but you could easily spice up these sweet potato chips with the addition of cayenne pepper or any other spices that would complement this dish!
Sweet Potato and Parmesan Chips
Ingredients
- 1 large sweet potato
- 1/4 cup Shaved Parmesan Cheese
- 1 tsp garlic salt
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees and line a baking dish with parchment paper.
- Peel the skin off the sweet potato and discard. Continue to peel the sweet potato so you have lots of thin strips of the sweet potato fresh. Put these strips onto the parchment lined baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil and top with the Parmesan, garlic salt, paprika, salt and pepper. Using your fingers, mix the toppings into the strips of sweet potato until evenly coated.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until the edges are just slightly turning light brown and the strips are crisp. Remove from oven and sprinkle with a touch of sea salt and a little more shaved Parmesan. Serve immediately.
Love that you made these with a vegetable peeler! Never thought of that. Delicious!
What a genius idea! I just found your sight through TastyKitchen, and I’ve already found about 5 things I need to try 🙂 Love the vegetable peeler idea….great way to get super thin ‘n crispy strips. I’m thinking about these drizzled with coconut oil and maybe some curry powder? 🙂
Thanks for sharing..

Great idea to peel these with a vegetable peeler!
These look fantastic! Great idea to use a peeler for very thin strips of potato – I’ve used a mandolin in the past, but these chips look so much better ;).

Bake the parmesan with it?! Genius. I love the slender little crisps. Great idea.
What a great idea to use a peeler! This is definitely a must try! The contract is color from the sweet potato and parm is perfect!
I love this idea!
What a simple yet effective idea. Love that you used a veggie peeler. Makes it so easy!
Fantastic, what a great snack.
I made these tonight and of course almost burned them b/c we like things toasty! Really good and EZ!
You’re right- anything made with sweet potatoes is the best! Can’t wait to try this recipe!
Wow, these look awesome. I just happen to have a few sweet potatoes! Guess what I’m having for dinner…? Other idea – I’ve been eating sweet potato fries for some months now, baked in the oven. I sprinkle chile powder on them. Perhaps chile powder might add a new dimension to this recipe.
Those looks awesome! Can’t wait to give them a try!!
I could go for a big bowl of these….right now…at 8 am.
I just came across this and had to come take a look. I love this twist on sweet potato fries! YUM! Definitely going to try them!

Those look incredible! I love making sweet potato chips, but hadn’t thought of shaving them- such a great idea. Thanks!
these look fantastic, thanks! i am going to win the sweet potato “contest” (of who can find the best recipe) my husband and i have going on….
Your Chips look wonderful, I can’t wait to try them. I would like to invite you to bring a dish to Full Plate Thursday, the linky is open all week end. Thank you for sharing and have a nice day!
I have made these 3 times since you posted the recipe! My hubby and I are on a low glycemic diet. I love how these are so cruncy and savory. My also love that they aren’t fried. Just yummy sweet potato goodness! I am making the petite frittatas next. Thanks, Gabby!!!!
Oh my these look AMAZING. I want these now. What a great little site you have here, I’m so glad I stumbled upon it!
I love chips, and sweet potatoes, and parmesan! I’ll just have to try these, thanks!
Love these!! Pretty sure I wouldn’t be able to keep my hand out of the chip bag.
What a fabulous way to enjoy some sweet potatoes!
Can’t wait to try these. I’m with you- sweet potatoes are great! So one more way to eat them is always a plus. I love baking ’em whole, but hadn’t thought of this approach. Thanks, Gaby 🙂
Oh Gaby, these absolutely knocked my socks off! THANK YOU for this recipe!
just made these with purple sweet potatoes from the farmer’s market – they are soooo delicious! thank you for this idea!
These sound/look delicious! I just made some baked sweet potato fries last night with garlic, fresh rosemary, pepper, kosher salt, olive oil and egg white (for crisping) while still maintaining a healthy side item option (3 weight watchers points!)….and they were so good that I posted them on m blog and now I am looking for other fun options!
I tried these last night and they came out soggy and inedible. 🙁 What did I do wrong? Even the burnt ones didn’t crisp up!
Mine came out soggy, too…except for the ones that were burnt. They tasted pretty good and we ate them, but they were not crunchy. Please help!
