Crispy, golden, and kissed with warm spice, these baked plantain chips hit that perfect sweet-salty balance that makes it nearly impossible to stop at just one handful. Green plantains are sliced paper-thin and tossed in coconut oil before going into the oven, where they slowly transform into light, crunchy rounds with beautifully caramelized edges. The finishing touch β a drizzle of honey and a dusting of Ceylon cinnamon while the chips are still warm β adds a fragrant, lightly sweet coating that sets as they cool on the rack. Ceylon cinnamon brings a gentler, more floral heat than the standard variety, and it pairs beautifully with the natural starchiness of the plantain. Store-bought chip options can be a minefield of shared fryers and mystery seasonings, but making these at home means you know exactly what went into the bag. They're a genuinely satisfying snack that works just as well at a party as it does on a quiet afternoon with nothing but a good show and a big bowl.
