Low Sugar Ginger-Scallion Beet Chips
Crunchy, vibrant, and packed with bold flavor, these oven-baked beet chips are the kind of snack that makes you forget store-bought options ever existed. The combination of fresh ginger, golden turmeric, and coconut oil gives each chip a warm, aromatic depth that pairs beautifully with the natural earthiness of the beets. A finishing scatter of fresh scallions adds a bright, savory pop right before serving. Because beets carry their own gentle sweetness, there's absolutely no need for any added sugar — the flavor is complex and satisfying all on its own. The key to getting that satisfying crunch is slicing the beets paper-thin and patting them completely dry before they hit the oven, so don't skip that step. These are a fantastic alternative to conventional chips when you're trying to keep your snacking clean without sacrificing any of the fun.

Using a mandoline or a very sharp knife, slice the peeled beets into rounds 1/16 to 1/8 inch thick — thin enough to see light through when held up. Uniform thickness is important so the chips dry at the same rate.
