Home-Baked Honey Parsnip Crisps
I love the parsnip crisps from M&S. I could munch and munch and munch on them. I do try not to buy them very often, but sometimes I just can't resist.
I found some late season British parsnips and decided to make my own crisps.
They are even better than the bought crisps, but there is a very big downside. With the shop bought crisps, I can have one little bag and when they are finished they are finished, but when you have a bag of parsnips, you can just peel another parsnip and enjoy another bowl of crisps, then another, and another .................

I am entering my Home-Baked Honey Parsnip Crisps into this month's Family Friendly Fridays hosted by Ren over at Fabulicious Food. These crisps are a great snack for children. The sweetness comes from honey and there is no oil in the recipes, just simply baked vegetable crisps.

Except that parsnips don't have all that much in the way of dietary support - I guess they have good fiber, but they're starchy like tatties - they really are not a bad snack at all. Sounds yummy. I should try this next with sweet potatoes and a bit of cayenne pepper... mmm.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking of trying sweet potatoes and carrots too, with different flavourings.
DeleteThis sounds delicious and very easy to make!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter xx
Really easy to make Manu. Pity I discovered they were so easy to make myself, right at the end of the season.
Deleteoo-er so fancy - just my sort of thing - I love vegetable crisps - beetroot are my favourite but I have never seen parsnip and I know I would love them
ReplyDeleteOh beetroot!!!! Brilliant! Why didn't I think of that Johanna?
ReplyDeleteI love the sound of these and like the suggestion of sweet potato above - partly as I have sweet potatoes in the cupboard right now!
ReplyDeleteI think I am starting something here Corina :)
DeleteIt is easy to see why test are so addictive Jacqueline.
ReplyDeleteVery addictive Val, very, very addictive.
DeleteOh dear! What have you done? I can see I'm going to have problems here.I love these, and now you've just given me the idea of making them. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteHe he, my evil plan has worked :)
DeleteOh YUM! These look incredibly good. Love the fact that they are baked - I do lie vegetable crisps but they are a bit greasy sometimes. Definitely one for the bank holiday weekend at ours : ) Thank you!
ReplyDeleteSo much healthier baked and they are lovely and crisp. I found the thicker ones needed an extra couple of minutes though.
DeleteI am going to try these for sure :)
ReplyDeleteYou are going to love them Tandy :)
DeleteWOW! Yammy!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Rachel :)
Deleteps, I have just given you an award :)
ReplyDeleteAwww thanks Tandy. That is kind. Coming to see :)
DeleteThey sound wonderful, but like you, if I made them I would have to eat the whole lot myself as I love parsnips but the rest of the family hate them!
ReplyDeleteEven more of an excuse and no added fat!!!
