Cinnamon Apple Chips

Posted by Rachel Schwartz on 8/30/2019 to Family

It's the end of August which means that school is back in session and fall is fast approaching. It also means that apple season is beginning. There are endless ways to make or eat apples--raw, baked, in various pastries, etc. Making apple chips at home is yet another, albeit lesser known, way to eat them. You've probably seen veggie chips and veggie straws in the store or have even seen apple chips available for purchase. These are bigger, easier, and healthier than buying the store brand as you know they are 100% natural (and tasty). With kids back in school, these apple chips make for a great after school snack or potato chip alternative for lunch. And, because you are baking them at home, you can determine how crispy or soft to make them.

Ingredients:

6 to 8 apples
Cinnamon or cinnamon and sugar mix
Parchment paper

Directions:

Cut the apples into rings with a serrated knife by slicing the apple sideways. Try to make the ring slices relatively thin as the thicker they are, the longer they will take to bake and the less crunchy they will turn out.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lay out the apple rings. Sprinkle with cinnamon or a mix of cinnamon and sugar for light flavoring.
Bake in the oven at 200°F for at least two hours or until the apples have reached your desired level of crispiness.
Let cool before eating.
