Caffeine Free Honey Cinnamon Plantain Chips
Crispy, golden, and kissed with warm spice, these baked plantain chips hit that perfect sweet-salty snack spot without a drop of caffeine in sight. Green plantains are sliced paper-thin and tossed in coconut oil before going into the oven, where they slowly transform into shatteringly crisp rounds with beautifully caramelized edges. The real magic happens right after they come out — a drizzle of honey and a dusting of Ceylon cinnamon coat each warm chip and set into a lightly sticky, fragrant glaze as they cool on the rack. Ceylon cinnamon brings a gentler, more floral heat than the standard variety, making every bite feel a little more special. Store-bought flavored chips can sneak in surprising additives, so making your own means you know exactly what's going into the bag. These are the kind of snack you make once and immediately plan to make again.
