Cinnamon Donut Chips - chips on a plate Oh, how I love when the day's fresh donuts get boxed up and put back out on the store floor for 25 cents a piece. You can make these scrumptious donut chips by drying them out, slicing them thin, and popping them in the oven. These guys taste like a cross between a sweet churro and a crispy bagel chip. I love to have one with my coffee and they're only about 80 calories each crisp!

Although I buy day-old donuts for this, I let them sit out until they go completely stale as they are easier to slice thin, and crisp up better in the oven.

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Cook Time: 15 minutes

Total Time: 20 minutes

Yield: 12 donut chips

Ingredients:

3 donuts, left out to go stale
4 tsp sugar
1 tsp cinnamon powder

Steps:

Preheat oven to 375F. Thinly slice donuts vertically with a serrated knife so there are 4 pieces from each donut.

Sprinkle 1/2 the cinnamon sugar mixture on the tops of the donut slices, then pop in preheated oven for about 15 minutes, or until they are golden and crisp.

If some slices are thicker than others, you can return them to the oven for a bit longer until they are crispy. Enjoy!
