Sweet potato chips sound simple enough, but getting them genuinely crispy at home is a small triumph ā and this version absolutely delivers. Thin-sliced rounds get tossed in melted coconut oil and warm Ceylon cinnamon before baking low and slow until the edges turn golden and the chips curl just slightly, which is exactly the sign you want. The wire rack trick and that final cool-down are what separate truly crisp chips from the sad, chewy ones you've probably made before. A drizzle of honey before baking adds a subtle caramel note that plays beautifully against the sea salt without tipping into candy territory. For anyone avoiding black pepper ā whether by preference, sensitivity, or a strict elimination protocol ā snack foods can be a minefield of hidden seasoning blends, but every ingredient here is straightforward and easy to verify. Ceylon cinnamon brings a gentler, more floral warmth than the cassia variety, making these chips feel a little more refined than your average baked snack. They're the kind of thing you'll make once and immediately want to double the batch.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper and set a wire cooling rack over one of them if you have one.
Using a mandoline set to 1/16-inch thickness, or a sharp knife, slice the sweet potatoes into rounds as uniformly thin as possible. Pat the slices dry with paper towels ā the drier the slices, the crisper the chips.
