Now you can munch on these crispy carrot stix , instead of plain carrot sticks.Delicate and delicious! You need a vegetable peeler to make these paper thin stix as a healthy snack or a garnish for your next salad. The carrot slices shrink quite a bit when baked, so buy the thickest carrots you can find to end up with wider, sturdier stix.

    Bake for 6 minutes, then rotate the pans between the racks. Bake until the edges of the chips are just starting to turn golden brown, about 6 to 8 minutes more. Place the baking sheets on wire racks and let the chips cool until crisp, about 3 minutes.
