Can I use regular beets instead of candy cane beets?

Absolutely, The flavor will be similar, but you'll miss those gorgeous pink stripes. Regular beets make darker red chips that are just as delicious - just expect a more earthy flavor profile.

How long do homemade beet chips last?

If you can resist eating them all immediately (good luck!), store them properly and they'll stay crispy for 3-4 days. The key is keeping them in an airtight container away from moisture - I've had success with glass jars!

Why did my beet chips turn out chewy?

Oh honey, we've all been there! Usually it means your slices were too thick or the oven wasn't hot enough. Next time, go thinner with your mandoline and make sure your oven's fully preheated - that crispness is worth the wait! If you are looking for alternative crisping methods, you might want to check out guides on air fryer beet chips .

Can I make these in an air fryer?

You bet! Same prep, but cook at 320°F for about 15 minutes, shaking the basket every 5 minutes. They cook faster in the air fryer, so keep a close eye to prevent burning. For tips on setting up your air fryer correctly, see this guide on mandoline settings for air fryer chips .
