Fluffy Baked Potato Chips Recipe [Vegan]

Fluffy vegan baked potato chip recipe

Sometimes I like to make elaborate meals like my most recent strawberry shortcake recipe, but other times… I just want some potatoes. These guys are my favorite way to eat simple potatoes! They’re like a cross between chips and a baked potato—crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and so addictive.

And it’s so simple, I almost feel silly even calling it a recipe. I usually have them with just salt and pepper, but they can be flavored so many ways, with sauces afterwards or spices while baking! (I add a few ideas below)

Nutrition note: contrary to popular opinion, potatoes are a nutritional powerhouse! Not only are they packed with fiber and resistant starch which are both great for weight loss (see my video on resistant starch & weight loss), but they’ve got almost every nutrient you need to survive. For example, one 400 calorie meal of these potatoes would give me 20% of my daily protein needs; 10g fiber; tons of potassium, B vitamins, and vitamin C; omega 3s, and a bunch more.

Vegan fluffy baked potatoes


  • 2 medium yukon gold potatoes (~300g)
  • Salt and pepper to taste (I use ~1/2 tsp seasoning salt, 1/8 tsp pepper)
  • Optional: spices to taste (can also use to replace salt): smoked paprika, taco seasoning, curry powder, chili lime seasoning, 21 seasoning salute (or other italian seasoning)


  1. Preheat oven to 420 degrees F.
  2. Slice potatoes into ~1/8″ thick slices width-wise (aka, so they’re circles not ovals), as evenly as possible. The best way to do this is with a mandolin, but a knife will do!
  3. Put them in a large tupperware, add spices, and shake them around to get them evenly coated.
  4. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread potato slices out in a single layer on the parchment paper with some space in between them. (Use multiple sheets if necessary)
  5. Place baking sheet(s) in oven. If you have multiple sheets, place them side by side on one rack rather than stacked on a rack above the other–you want both sheets to get full heat from the top and bottom of the oven!
  6. Bake for 18 minutes, or until there are large golden brown bubbles on top of all of the slices, like in the photos. But don’t let them get fully browned!
  7. Eat immediately, since they’re crispiest while hot!

  1. These look great! I make something like this I call potato coins. I toss the rounds with some mustard and olive oil in addition to the spices, but yours look like a more chip-like product. I can almost taste them!!
