Coconut Chips

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 300ºF and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large bowl stir together the big flake coconut, maple syrup, vanilla, and sea salt. Use a gentle hand while stirring so the coconut chips don't get broken.

Step 3

Spread the coconut mixture in an even layer on the parchment lined baking sheet.

Step 4

Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, stirring halfway through the cooking time.

Step 5

When the cooking time is up, turn the oven off. Stir the coconut chips again with the oven door open while you stir to let out some of the heat so the coconut chips don't overcook.

Step 6

Shut the oven door after stirring and allow the coconut chips to cool down with the oven for 2 hours. This step helps the chips get super crispy.

Step 7

Remove the chips from the oven after the 2 hours is up, and let them cool completely to room temperature before storing them in an airtight container.
