Tips for Making Crispy Chips

These chips are quite easy to make but there are a few mistakes that you should be aware of.

The first mistake that many people make is that they make the avocado batter thicker in an attempt to make the chips thicker. These baked avocado chips are plenty thick so I’m not sure why someone would care to do this. This is not a good idea because thicker avocado chips taking more baking time. This may make your baked chips bitter and ruins the entire experience of the chips.

Parmesan cheese is the secret to the amazing crispiness of these avocado crackers. Make sure that you add ¾ cup of Parmesan cheese to the recipe. If you reduce the cheese, the avocado crisps will be soft and soggy and you won’t be left with a crispy avocado chip.

Another tip for making this recipe a phenomenal success is the lime juice. When the underlying lime flavor fuses with the exotic avocado taste, it is just a mouthwatering explosion! The lime also helps to reduce the slight bitterness of baked avocado.

If you want to take your avocado chips to the next level, here’s another secret: don’t bake the chips for too long. If they are in the oven for too long, the cheese may get burned, leaving a bitter, burnt taste. Secondly, if you leave some green part of avocado on the chips, it leaves a delicious texture and color on them. So, they don’t just taste amazing but they also look fantastic on the table!

  1. I loved how easy it was to blend the avocado with parmesan, lime juice, garlic powder and cayenne pepper in the food processor. The mixture came out super smooth and was easy to portion onto the baking sheet. I found that pressing them thinner with a spatula made them crisp up more evenly at the 30 minute mark. The cayenne gave a nice subtle heat that paired surprisingly well with the creamy avocado and salty parmesan. One thing I didn’t expect was how delicate they’d be right out of the oven, but letting them cool for 10 minutes definitely helped them firm up. Next time I might try a silicone baking mat instead of parchment to see if that changes the texture.

  2. I was pleasantly surprised by how crispy these turned out without using any traditional flour. The cayenne gave the chips a subtle kick that really made them stand out. I’ll definitely be making these again.

  3. These turned out really tasty and have a great crunch. I liked them best fresh out of the oven, but they still held up okay the next day after I stored them in an airtight container.

  4. Absolutely delicious! Easy to make. The “serves 15” May be misleading, because that is the number of chips the recipe makes, so… one chip per serving? Still, that would only be about 8 carbs for the whole batch, and that is great. You’ll want to eat the while bunch! But in case you don’t, what is the beat way to store these?
