These loaded vegan sweet potato nachos are THE perfect snack for game day, Netflix and chill nights, or truly any occasion.

These tasty sweet potato nachos do take a little longer to prep than traditional nachos, but the hands-on time is still pretty minimal. And you’ll see – the final product is so good!

How to make crispy sweet potato nacho chips

Soggy nachos are no fun. It’s important that you get your sweet potato nacho chips crispy in this recipe.

First, you want to make sure your sweet potato rounds are thin and even in thickness. Thicker sweet potato rounds will need to bake for longer and will get chewy rather than crispy. If you have a mandoline, use that. If not, no worries – just use a sharp knife.

Also, do not overlap slices on the pan too much or moisture will build in the oven. We want to roast these potatoes, not steam them!

Can you make air fryer sweet potato nachos?

These sweet potato chip nachos can be made in the oven at 425F or in the airfryer. Totally your call.

Regardless, you’ll want to crisp up your sweet potato nacho chips first, add your toppings, and then put the tray back in the oven or airfryer.
