Chose your favorite apple variety to make these simple and healthy baked cinnamon apple chips! These crisp apple chips are delicious and addicting, without the guilt!

Ingredients

▢ 2 apples, your favorite variety
▢ 2 tablespoons (14 g) powdered sugar
▢ 2 teaspoons (6 g) cinnamon

Special Equipment

Instructions

Preheat oven to 200°F (93ºC).
Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Sift powdered sugar into a bowl. Add cinnamon to the powdered sugar and gently whisk to combine.
Thinly slice the apples using a mandoline, to 1/16-inch. Remove the seeds from the individual slices.
Spread the apple slices onto the lined baking sheets making one single layer. About 15 slices should fit on a half sheet pan.
Transfer the cinnamon and sugar mixture into a sifter or strainer. Gently sprinkle each apple slice with a thin coating of the cinnamon sugar mixture.
Turn the apple slices over and sprinkle with the remaining cinnamon-sugar.
Bake for 1 hour, then flip and bake until crisp, an additional 1 hour.
To test the doneness, remove the apples from the oven and allow to rest at room temperature for 5 minutes. If the apples are not crunchy, continue baking in 15-minute increments.
Remove the apples from the baking sheets and allow to cool completely before storing in an airtight container.

Notes

Any apple variety can be used. I recommend Granny Smith, Fuji, Honeycrisp, or Red Delicious.
Work quickly, as the apples will begin to brown if left exposed to air for too long.
Use 4 apples if you want more slices with the star pattern in the center. This is done by slicing from the bottom of the apple.
Apple chips can be made without any powdered sugar, cinnamon is also optional. Use the same recipe baking directions.
