"Indulge in a guilt-free snack with these golden-brown, perfectly crisp apple chips seasoned with a warm blend of cinnamon and sugar. Using the air fryer ensures a satisfying crunch without any deep frying, making them the ultimate healthy treat for kids and adults alike."

1 Ingredients

Qty Item
2 large Apples (Gala or Honeycrisp)
1 tsp Ground Cinnamon
1 tbsp Granulated Sugar
1 spritz Cooking Oil Spray

2 Instructions

1

Wash and core the apples, leaving the skin on for extra fiber and color.

2

Use a mandoline slicer or a very sharp knife to cut the apples into very thin rounds, approximately 1/8 inch thick.

3

In a small bowl, whisk together the ground cinnamon and granulated sugar.

4

Lightly spray the apple slices with a tiny bit of cooking oil (optional) and toss them gently with the cinnamon-sugar mixture until evenly coated.

5

Preheat your air fryer to 300ยฐF (150ยฐC).

6

Place the apple slices in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Work in batches to avoid overlapping, which prevents them from getting crispy.

7

Air fry for 15 to 20 minutes, flipping the slices every 5 minutes to ensure even dehydration.

8

Remove the chips once they are curled at the edges and feel mostly dry; they will continue to crisp up significantly as they cool.

9

Transfer to a wire rack and let them cool completely for at least 5 minutes before serving.


๐Ÿ’ก Tips & Tricks

  • ยท

    Uniform thickness is the secret to even crunch; a mandoline is highly recommended.

  • ยท

    Don't be alarmed if they feel slightly soft when hot; the cooling process on a wire rack is what creates the final snap.

  • ยท

    Use Granny Smith apples if you prefer a tart and tangy snack instead of sweet.

  • ยท

    Store leftovers in an airtight container with a piece of parchment paper to maintain crispness for up to 3 days.


? Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to peel the apples?
No, the peel provides a beautiful color and extra nutrients. Just ensure they are washed well.
Why are my apple chips soggy?
They were likely sliced too thick or weren't allowed to cool properly on a rack. Try air frying for an extra 2-3 minutes at 300ยฐF.
Can I use a sugar substitute?
Yes, erythritol or coconut sugar work perfectly as 1:1 replacements for granulated sugar.
How many layers can I cook at once?
For the best results, keep them in a single layer. If you must overlap, shake the basket every 3 minutes, but the texture may be less consistent.
