Preheat oven to 200C. (392F)
Cut off the leaves and stems (set these aside for the linked recipe above) and the roots. Thoroughly rinse each beet, ensuring no dirt is left on, using a veggie brush if needed.
2 medium Fresh whole beetroot
With the skin on, using a mandolin or knife, and thinly slice each beetroot about 2-3 mm thickness. A mandolin will ensure each slice is uniform which will create even baking.
In a large bowl, add the sliced beetroot, olive oil and seasoning (see above for suggestions) and toss together until evenly coated. Do not drench in oil.
2 tablespoon Olive oil, 1 pinch Seasoning
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place each beetroot slice individually on the tray, ensuring they do not overlap.
Place tray(s) in the middle of the oven and bake for approximately 15-20 minutes or until crispy. Check at the 12-13 minute mark, as smaller slices may already be crispy. Remove crispy beet slices as needed to prevent burning. Watch closely towards the end of baking, as they will brown quickly.
Transfer the beetroot crisps to a wire rack to cool before serving.
