Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large apples (Honeycrisp or Fuji recommended)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 200°F (95°C).
- Wash and core the apples.
- Slice the apples as thinly as possible, about 1/16-inch thick. A mandoline slicer is helpful here.
- Arrange the apple slices in a single layer on baking sheets lined with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, mix the cinnamon and nutmeg (if using).
- Lightly sprinkle the cinnamon mixture over the apple slices.
- Bake for 2-3 hours, flipping the slices halfway through, until they are dry and crisp.
- Turn off the oven and let the chips cool completely in the oven with the door slightly ajar. This helps them crisp up further.
Notes
- For even drying, ensure apple slices are uniform in thickness.
- If you don’t have a mandoline, a sharp knife will work, but it requires more care.
- Store cooled chips in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
