How to Make Oven Baked Crispy Parmesan Tomato Chips!
- We want to start with setting a cooling rack over a jelly roll pan covered with aluminum foil.
- The tomatoes need to be thinly sliced and set on the prepared cooling rack.
- We will brush the tomatoes with olive oil and season them.
- Tomatoes go into a 275F-degree oven for around 2.5 to 3 hours. Please check every now and then to make sure the tomatoes are not burnt.
- Few minutes before taking them out of the oven, you will want to sprinkle the tomatoes with the cheese and bake for an additional 3 to 4 minutes, or until cheese is melty.
- Remove from oven and let completely cool for an hour.
Gorgeous and healthy, these parmesan tomato chips belong alongside your favorite sandwich, salad, or a snack. You can use as many as 15 tomatoes, or as little as 5. Adjust amounts of seasonings and olive oil, accordingly.
HOW TO STORE TOMATO CHIPS

What a great recipe to use up all the tomatoes in the garden!
Hi there! I’m just wondering if you could please tell me – can I use a big cookie sheet, instead of a jelly roll pan? Also, are they able to be stored and eaten at a later date?
Thank you!! Excited to try these.

Yes, you can definitely use a big cookie sheet.
