I’m not the kind of chick who regularly makes her own potato chips. I have a few store bought favorites, and I generally stick with what I like. However, in my neverending quest to perfect crispy sweet potatoes, these chips were a challenge I couldn’t pass up. Only, they weren’t challenging at all!

Since my salt-and-vinegar love affair all started with these amazing smashed potatoes, I’ve never looked back on that combination of tangy, puckering vinegar with coarse sea salt and crispy potatoes. So delicious!

All you need for these perfect homemade sweet potato chips are three ingredients: A medium sweet potato that’s pretty uniformly shaped throughout, which will yield more same-size chips. Some malt vinegar. And some sea salt, or kosher salt.

Simply slice your potatoes, marinade them in the vinegar for just 15 minutes, and bake them in a piping hot oven, flipping once. Salt ’em up, and get to snacking! These chips are totally addictive, and unbelievably easy. You can even try serving them with a cool, light dipping sauce.

Have a great weekend, and enjoy this recipe if you try it!

  1. These look great! But do you think they would work with out the vinegar?

  2. Sure! I would toss the potato slices with a little olive oil before baking, though.

  3. These look perfect crispy. Clever move with the vinegar on sweet potato!

  4. 5 stars
    In Norway where I am from, vinegar is used to remove rust mainly, unless it is balsamic vinegar that is… BUT here in Scotland the main flavour of crisps is salt and vinegar and it is delicious! So weird if you’re not used to it – but once you are… it is delicious! These look so good :D x

  5. I’m on a quest to find the perfect sweet potato chip too and these look wonderful!! I’ve never made my own potato chips, but I think that has to change with these! :)
