Sweet potato chips that actually crisp up at home are one of those small kitchen victories that feel wildly satisfying. The secret here is slicing the rounds paper-thin and patting them completely dry before they ever touch the oven ā that extra step makes all the difference between a chip and a sad, chewy round. Melted coconut oil coats every slice beautifully and brings a subtle richness that plays perfectly against the warm, floral notes of Ceylon cinnamon. Ceylon is worth seeking out over the more common cassia variety; it's gentler and more complex, which keeps these chips tasting refined rather than like a holiday candle. The optional honey adds just a whisper of extra sweetness, but the recipe holds its own without it, making it fully plant-based either way. Patience in those final minutes of baking is everything ā pull them when the edges are just turning golden, let them cool on the rack, and watch them transform into something genuinely snackable. These are the kind of chips that disappear fast, so you might want to make both pans count.

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.
