Tools You'll Need
- Measuring spoons
- Small bowl
- Chef’s knife
- Cutting board
- Baking Sheets
Ingredients
- 3 apples*
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- ¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Pinch of chili powder (optional)
Directions
-
Preheat oven
Preheat oven to 225°.
-
Mix seasoning
In a small bowl stir together sugar, cinnamon, and chili powder. Set aside.
-
Line baking sheet.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, and set aside.
-
Begin slicing
Using a sharp knife, cut the top and bottom off of the apples. Slice a small part off the side of the apple so it will sit flat and not roll around on your cutting board.
-
Slice apple chips
Place the apple flat on your cutting board and slice the apple into ⅛ inch-thick rounds. Repeat with the remaining 2 apples.
-
Place chips on baking sheet
Arrange apples in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
-
Season and bake
Sprinkle cinnamon-sugar blend over apple slices and bake at 225° for 1 hour and 45 minutes, or until edges begin to curl and the chips are golden and crisp.
-
Allow chips to cool
Slide parchment paper with apple chips onto cooling racks and cool completely for about 20 minutes. The chips will crisp more as they cool.
Chef's Note:
Honey Crisps, gala, Fuji, Granny Smiths, or pink ladies are the best for this recipe. When slicing the apples by hand, try to be as consistent as possible with the size so they cook evenly. If you happen to have a mandolin this is a great time to break it out! Low and slow is the key to these delicious apple chips. They are definitely worth the wait.
