Easy Apple Chips Recipe

Easy Apple Chips are thinly sliced apples coated with cinnamon and baked at a low temperature until crisp. The recipe uses sweet apple varieties like Gala, Fuji, or Honeycrisp, and emphasizes slicing apples to about 1/8 inch thick for optimal crispness. The baking process involves slow drying in the oven, flipping halfway through, and cooling inside to enhance texture. These chips make a crunchy, lightly spiced snack or garnish that holds well when stored properly.

Ingredients

  • 3 large apple such as Gala, Fuji, or Honeycrisp
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 200 degrees Fahrenheit (90 Celsius).
  2. Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  3. Wash and thinly slice the apples using a mandoline to about 1/8-inch thick. Remove the seeds from each slice.
  4. Spread the apple slices closely in one layer onto the baking sheets. Sprinkle with cinnamon on both sides.
  5. Bake the apples for 1 hour. Flip the apples over and bake for 1 more hour.
  6. Turn the oven off and let the apples cool in the oven for about 30 minutes before taking out. If the apples are not crunchy, continue baking them in 15 minute increments.
  7. Remove the apples from the baking sheet and enjoy, or store immediately in an airtight container.

Notes

  • Choose naturally sweet apples like Fuji, Honeycrisp, or Gala for better flavor and crispness.
  • Slicing apples uniformly thin (about 1/8 inch or less) ensures crisp apple chips.
  • Allow the apple slices to cool in the oven after baking to help achieve maximum crispness.
  • A mandoline slicer is recommended for consistent thin slices but handle carefully for safety.
