But back to the plantains.

How to make crispy plantain chips without frying

Make sure you bake them in a single layer, to get all the crispiness out of them as possible.

Use the largest baking tray you have so you can leave some space in between each one.

This may seem tedious when placing them down, but I promise it’s worth it!

You will get beautiful, crispy, delicious, baked plantain chips using this method.

When ready to flip your chips, I use a metal fork to flip each one individually.

You want to handle these with care, so you don’t “smoosh” them before they’ve had a chance to crisp up nicely.

I bake mine at high heat in a convection bake oven for maximum crispiness. If you do not have a convection bake option, you may want to bake yours for a little longer.

These chips taste best when freshly made, but can be stored in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
