Mommy and kid approved recipe! Once you pop, you can't stop! ;) I was craving something sweet today but I didn't want to blow my whole day of healthy eating. So what do I do on this rainy day? I make apple chips of course!
The preparation is simple and quick, but it takes awhile to bake- Low & Slow! Let me give you a warning, the aroma of baked apple pie was filling my house for hours and I wanted to snatch them out of the oven to scarf them down, haha!
All you need is a few items to get started:
Apples
Cinnamon
Sugar (Optional)
Mandolin
Silicone Baking Sheet Or Non Stick
Directions: Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Cut the top of the apple off near the stem. Flip it over and use the mandolin to slice the thinnest apple slices possible. This way they aren't soggy, and they get crunchy when baking. Lay the apple slices out on the pans in a single layer. I mixed cinnamon and a pinch of sugar together, and sprinkle the apple slices. Put them in the oven for one hour....

After the first hour, I flipped the chips and put them back in for an hour and a half. If you used a baking stone you could probably get away with not flipping them. I took a little peak at this point- they looked good so I turned off the oven and let them sit in there for another hour.... Pulled them out and after about 2 minutes they were crunchy cinnamon sugar apple chips-A Delicious treat!
