Crispy, golden, and loaded with the kind of savory depth that makes it impossible to stop at just one handful, these baked plantain chips are a serious snack upgrade. Coconut oil coats every thin slice before they go into the oven, delivering that satisfying crunch without a single additive, emulsifier, or mystery ingredient in sight. Store-bought chips are notoriously tricky territory — lecithin, mono- and diglycerides, and other stabilizers tend to sneak into the ingredient list even when you least expect them. Here, everything is straightforward: green plantains, coconut oil, garlic, rosemary, sea salt, and a touch of ground ginger. The mandoline technique is the real secret weapon, because uniform slices mean every chip bakes evenly and crisps up properly as it cools on the rack. The garlic and rosemary combination gives these a herby, almost Mediterranean character that feels far more elevated than your average chip bowl. They're the kind of snack you can set out for guests or keep all to yourself — no label-reading required.

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 be chewy rather than crisp.
