Baked Sliced Potato Rounds – Top 8 Allergy Free!

If you’re looking for a perfect crispy potatoey side dish look no farther! This one has been a go to of ours for a long time – especially since discovering EOE. This one is naturally top 8 allergy free as I make it, but it doesn’t have to be if you don’t have these items on hand.

I love red potatoes. There’s something about the skin and flavor that always draws me to them, and they have the perfect amount of color to flash up any plan looking plate. For this recipe I use about 4-5 large red potatoes, however many it will take to fill up my largest cookie sheet because there are never any leftovers.

For the cooking oil. I use olive oil or canola oil to avoid soy and nuts. If you are not worried about that, any vegetable oil or cooking oil that you use will work great in its place. Then to season we love standard black pepper and seasoning salt!

The secret to the ideal amount of soft vs crisp is the thickness of the potato slices. If you go too thick they will take too long to cook and will have a “potato flavor”. I personally don’t have a problem with them tasting potatoey, but to get them to a crisper state I try to cut them as thin as I can with just my standard cutting knife. This usually gets them to about 1/4 inch thick maybe a little less, they don’t have to be perfect but should be of similar size so that they cook evenly. If want them to be crispier you can take them down to 1/8 inch thick, but be careful you don’t go too thin because they may cook down beyond the level of crispy and not be able to be removed from the cookie sheet.
