Crispy, golden, and loaded with the kind of herby garlic flavor that makes it impossible to stop at just one, these baked plantain chips are a serious snack upgrade. Green plantains are the star here — sliced paper-thin and tossed in melted coconut oil with minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, and a touch of turmeric before hitting the oven. That golden spice blend gives each chip a warm, earthy color and a depth of flavor that feels way more intentional than your average store-bought bag. The key is getting those slices as uniform as possible so every chip bakes evenly and crisps up without any sad, chewy stragglers in the mix. A quick flip halfway through and a few minutes on a wire rack to cool is all it takes to get that satisfying, shatter-crisp texture. For anyone navigating snack options that are completely free of fungi-derived ingredients, this recipe is refreshingly straightforward — every ingredient is whole, plant-based, and easy to verify. Finish with a scatter of fresh parsley and serve them immediately while they're at peak crunch.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
Using a mandoline set to 1/16-inch thickness, or a sharp knife, slice the peeled plantains into rounds as uniformly thin as possible — aim for about 1/16 to 1/8 inch. Uniform thickness is key; thicker slices will not crisp fully.
