  5. Bake for 12 minutes. Flip and bake for another 6-8 minutes until they're golden-brown and crisp.
  6. Optional: Top with a light sprinkle of vegan cheese shreds and broil for 1-2 minutes or until the cheese is hot and bubbling.

Notes

For casual snacking: Halve the recipe and simply quarter the potatoes instead of slicing them. Serve the hot potatoes with a side of guacamole for dipping.
