Stock these sweet, salty, spicy roasted coconut chips in the pantry for whenever that craving strikes for a sweet and crunchy snack.
Last week was a bit hectic in the kitchen (in the best way). Between cups of coffee and a bunch of savory work shoots, I was really craving something sweet with some crunch, and so I threw these roasted coconut chips together. O M G! New favorite snack alert.
First of all, these chips are made with better-for-you, natural ingredients like coconut sugar, maple syrup, and spices. They’re sweet, salty, a bit spicy with a kick of paprika, and absolutely jam packed with flavor and texture. You should definitely make a batch (or two, or three) to stock away in your pantry for whenever that craving strikes for sweet and crunchy snack.
