Time 25m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 small acorn squash, or more to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
½ teaspoon Sea Salt, gray
1 pinch ground cumin
1 pinch ground cinnamon

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Use a vegetable peeler to peel squash skin as thinly as possible. Chop peels into 1-inch square pieces; you should have about 1 cup squash peels. Reserve squash flesh for another use.
Mix olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon sea salt, cumin, and cinnamon together in a bowl. Add squash peels and stir until evenly coated. Spread peels onto 2 baking sheets.
Roast in the preheated oven until crispy and golden brown, 13 to 15 minutes; watch closely as thinner chips can burn quickly.
Season roasted chips with salt as needed.
