Notes
- Allow them to brown longer to get a more crispy version.
- I don't recommend making these ahead if you want crispy ones. If you don't mind them being less crispy you can make them ahead and reheat in the microwave or air fryer.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Do not freeze.
- Add in customizations if you want! A few ideas are tomatoes, fried shallots, lemon juice, almonds or pistachios, or a spicy Chinese version with red pepper flakes, miso and soy sauce.
- Recipe can be doubled for a larger gathering.
