So, I was planning on trying to post more times a week, but instead of the three posts this week I was hoping for, I ended up with one! Ooops, I guess I dropped the ball on that one! Lately life has seemed a little bit crazy and sometimes I feel like I’m too busy to slow down and get organized. I think I need to hire a personal assistant! Anyone out there want to work for pumpkin bread??!
Work has been busy and stressful lately and when I get home all I want to do is curl up on the couch with Cheeto, Modern Family and a glass of red wine. I’ve been doing this all week and it has been great, but unfortunately I haven’t done anything productive. But, honestly it has been really nice and just what I needed!
But, one thing I almost always have time for is feasting on chips! I’ve said it before and it is still as true as ever: I’ll eat anything in chip form! And since I already love sweet potatoes with all my heart, it is just an added bonus to eat sweet potato chips. These baked sweet potato chips are taken to the next level with some delicious BBQ seasoning!
On another note that is just as exciting as sweet potato chips, believe it or not next week is my one year blog anniversary! I kinda can’t believe that I have had this little blog for a whole year now. It has been frustrating at times, a huge learning experience, and one of the best things I’ve ever done! So, stay tuned next Tuesday for a fun GIVEAWAY to celebrate She Likes Food turning 1 year old and also a really awesome black bean burger recipe that is stacked high with these sweet potato chips! Trust me, you don’t want to miss it!
PrintBaked BBQ Sweet Potato Chips
Ingredients
- 3 medium sized, long and skinny sweet potatoes
- 3–4 teaspoons olive oil
- BBQ Seasoning:
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar or coconut sugar
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 325 degrees F. In a small bowl, add all of the BBQ seasoning ingredients and mix until combined.
- Using a mandolin or large, sharp knife, slice the sweet potatoes into thin slices, about 1/8 inch thick. Place the sweet potato slices into a large bowl and drizzle with olive oil (about 3-4 teaspoons, more if needed) and sprinkle with BBQ seasoning. Toss until all sweet potato slices are coated with olive oil and seasoning.
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Place sweet potatoes on the tray making sure that they don’t overlap. You will need to bake sweet potato chips in batches. Bake 20-30 minutes, flipping chips once, until crispy. Let cool for 5-10 minutes and they will harden up a little bit more.

Does the Sweet Potato Chips store well? Thanks
She Likes Food says
Hi Leila, unfortunately they can get a bit soggy when stored, but if you store them at room temperature they would hold up better. I hope that helps!

I want to make this sugar-/sweetener-free. It’ll obviously taste less sweet -but I’m okay with that. Would you make any changes to the spice blend when not including a sweetener?
She Likes Food says
Hi Marie, I think it would be fine to just leave the sugar out and just use the regular amount of the rest of the spices! I hope you enjoy 🙂
