Description
Cinnamon baked apple chips are a healthy snack made from thinly sliced apples baked until crispy, seasoned with cinnamon for a warm flavor.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 medium apples: Choose varieties like Fuji or Honeycrisp for their sweetness and crisp texture.
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice: This helps prevent the apples from browning and enhances their flavor.
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon: This spice adds a warm, comforting taste that pairs perfectly with apples.
- 1/4 teaspoon salt: A pinch of salt balances the sweetness and enhances the overall flavor.
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 200°F (95°C).
- Wash and dry the apples, then slice them into thin rounds, about 1/8 inch thick, removing seeds and core.
- In a large bowl, combine apple slices with lemon juice, then sprinkle with cinnamon and salt, tossing to coat.
- Arrange the apple slices in a single layer on parchment-lined baking sheets, ensuring they do not overlap.
- Bake for 1.5 to 2 hours, flipping halfway through, until the chips are crisp and slightly curled.
- Let the chips cool completely on the baking sheets before storing in an airtight container at room temperature.
Notes
- Choose crisp and sweet apple varieties for the best flavor.
- Adjust the amount of cinnamon to suit your taste.
- Rotate baking sheets halfway through for even baking.
- Store in an airtight container to maintain crispiness.
