These coconut chips tossed in maple syrup and sea salt are the perfect sweet-n-salty snack.
You’re going to wonder where homemade coconut chips have been all your life. With just the right combination of sweet and salty, you’ll be grabbing for these every time you get the munchies.
Unlike most other chips, you don’t need any oil to help these snacks crisp up. Because coconut has a naturally high fat content, the flakes naturally release their oils as they bake. Coconut contains a large amount of medium-chained fatty acids, which are readily used by the body as energy.

You’ll also get a healthy dose of fiber and minerals, like brain-boosting manganese. To get the signature sweet-salty flavor, pink Himalayan sea salt and maple syrup coat the chips to create a flavor similar to kettle popcorn – but healthier!
Start by combining coconut flakes in a large mixing bowl along with the pink salt. Drizzle in maple syrup and use a spoon to gently stir until all flakes are coated. Pour onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 20 minutes. Note: It is really important to stir the coconut flakes every 5 minutes in order to achieve an even golden color and crispness. Try these coconut chips over Paleo cereal, sprinkled on Paleo ice cream, or as a snack all by themselves!
