Nigerian-Style Coconut Chips Recipe

🥥 Nigerian-Style Coconut Chips Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1 whole mature coconut
  • 2 tablespoons sugar (optional)
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract or coconut flavor (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter or coconut oil (optional)

Method:

  1. Crack the coconut and remove the hard shell.
  2. Peel off the thin brown skin if you prefer lighter chips.
  3. Wash and slice the coconut very thinly using a peeler, mandoline, or sharp knife.
  4. Place the slices in a bowl and add salt, sugar, vanilla and melted butter/coconut oil if using.
  5. Mix gently until evenly coated.
  6. Arrange the slices in a single layer on a lined baking tray.
  7. Bake at 150°C (300°F) for 15–25 minutes, turning halfway through, until lightly golden and crisp.
  8. Allow them to cool completely—they become crispier as they cool.

🔥 Deep-fried version

For extra-crispy Nigerian-style coconut chips, fry thin coconut slices in moderately hot oil until golden brown, then drain on paper towels.

Tip: Slice the coconut as thinly and evenly as possible so the chips cook at the same rate.

Enjoy! ❤️
