Main ingredients

  • 2-3 medium-sized medium-sized apples Granny Smith for tartness or Honeycrisp for sweetness

Optional spices

  • to taste cinnamon Optional spice for sprinkling
  • to taste nutmeg Optional spice for sprinkling
  • to taste sugar Optional for additional sweetness

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 225°F (110°C).
  • Wash and slice the apples into thin rounds, about 1/8 inch thick.
  • Arrange the slices on a parchment-lined baking sheet in a single layer.
  • Sprinkle with spices, if desired.

Baking

  • Bake for about 1.5 to 2 hours, flipping the slices halfway through.
  • Monitor closely to prevent burning; some apples may dry faster than others.

Cooling

  • Once golden and crispy, remove the chips from the oven and allow them to cool completely.

Notes

Ensure apple slices are evenly spaced for even drying. For enhanced flavor, consider dehydrating instead of baking, and be cautious to avoid using overly ripe apples to prevent mushiness.
