Ingredients
  

Apple Chips
  • 4 large apples thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon optional flavor
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice prevents browning
Serving Ideas
  • 1 cup plain yogurt optional dip

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Baking Sheet
  • Oven
  • Mandoline Slicer
  • Cooling Rack
  • Freezer

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to low temperature and line baking sheets with parchment for easier cleanup afterward.
  2. Slice apples very thinly using mandoline for crisp texture and even baking throughout every batch.
  3. Toss apple slices gently with lemon juice and sprinkle cinnamon lightly across both sides evenly.
  4. Arrange slices carefully on baking sheets without overlapping so moisture escapes during slow baking process.
  5. Bake slowly until edges curl slightly and chips feel crisp after cooling completely on racks.

Notes

Bake shorter for softer chewy chips or longer for crispier texture. Freeze cooled apple chips carefully in airtight containers for extended freshness. Customize flavor using pumpkin spice, nutmeg, or cocoa powder. Handle cooled chips gently because thinner slices break easily. Store at room temperature inside sealed containers up to one week.
