Notes
- If your sweet potato cracker dough is too soft to handle, refrigerate it till it firms up enough to roll easily.
- The key to crispy sweet potato snacks is thin rolling. The thinner the chips, the crispier the result.
- When each sweet potato cracker is thick, you get chewy chips as opposed to crackly ones. To my surprise, my son preferred the chewy ones, so don’t discount them!
- These crackers get done rather fast. And you don’t want to burn or overbake them. For me, 15 minutes at 350°F (180 °C) worked well. But every oven is different, so keep an eye on them.
- I had to rotate the tray once to bake the crackers evenly. While this is not necessary (depending on your oven), check once to see if the chips are browning evenly.
- If the underside is not baking properly, turn them upside down.
