How long do these generally keep for? I am loving this as a potato chip alternative!
Kristine, At least one week, although they only last one day at my house. 🙂
Can you sub olive oil for the coconut oil? Do you really need the honey? Bell peppers are sweet as it is.
Mary Anne, You can use olive oil instead and honey is not an absolute requirement. 🙂
These sound great. Can they be done in an air frier?
Lynne, We haven’t made this recipe in an air fryer but I’m sure it’s doable.
So you cook in oven for 8-10 hours on 150?
Shannan, That’s correct.
