Apple Chips Recipe

Apple Chips Recipe

Cook Time: 45 minutes

Apple Chips

Ingredients:

  • 2 Golden Delicious apples, cored and thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoons white sugar
  • teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions:

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 225F (110C). Line a metal baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2: Arrange the apple slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 3: In a small bowl, mix together the white sugar and cinnamon.

Step 4: Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the apple slices.

Step 5: Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until the apples are dried and their edges curl up. Keep an eye on them as oven temperatures can vary.

Step 6: Once done, use a metal spatula to transfer the chips to a wire rack. Let them cool completely until they become crispy.

Cooks Note: For even slices, use a food processor with a slicing blade or a mandoline. If desired, flip the apple slices halfway through baking and sprinkle with more cinnamon sugar for extra flavor.

The first time I made these it was a disaster. They stuck to the pan so bad that I had to scrape them off with a sharp knife into thousands of little pieces. I couldn't salvage anything to even try to taste one. I decided to try again, but spraying the sheet first. It worked! They are delicious and easily lifted from the sheet. One star if made according to directions and five stars if you spray the sheet first.

I have tried making these twice now. Here are the tips I have to make them better: slice apples with a mandolin and then place in a bag with the cinnamon and sugar to coat both sides. Bake on parchment paper lined cookie sheets for an hour at 250, flip slices over and bake another hour.

I just made this last night and it is so good. My two kids inhaled them so I had to make a 2nd batch. I used two pans - one lined with a Silpat and the other with parchment and the apples on the parchment crisped up much faster than the ones on the Silpat. If you want super crispy chips, then bake for at least 90 minutes (flip midway) then turn the oven off and let the apples sit in the warm oven until the oven is cool.

I tried the recipe, but gave it a twist. I made 2 batches, one with jalapeno and lime seasoning and one with cinnamon, powder vanilla, powder chocolate, and Splenda. I sliced them thick with mandalin, rubbed with coconut oil,before seasoning, sprayed the cookie sheets and baked at 250 degrees for 1 1/2 hours. Fantastic! Healthy eating while watching your diet.

Very crisp & tasty!! Used mandolin to slice to 3/16" and cooked at 250F for 2 hours - flipping the chips at an hour. Used Fuji apples - sugar and cinnamon on half the batch and plain on the other. Loved both - I won't add the sugar next time. Other recipes recommended dipping in 50-50 mixture of water/lemon to keep them from going brown ... no need! I will definitely do this again ...

These chips are SO awesome and yummy and EASY!!!! After thin-slicing my apple on a mandoline, I put the slices on parchment paper in my toaster oven and sprinkled them with cinnamon sugar on each side. Then I set it on the convection bake setting at 225 degrees and let them sit for 45 minutes each side. They were PERFECT!! This one's a winner! Thanks for the recipe, walkerkr walkerkr

I thought these were good and fun to do. It would be a great addition to your fall event. I did, however, lessen the cinnamon, used parchment paper, used Granny Smith (all I had), baked for 45 min, flipped them, and baked for 30+/- until golden brown. I didn't have to core it, just mandoline away.

I made these using a mandolin slicer and using crispin apples. I did not peel them or core them, sprinkled each one with cinnamon sugar on both sides, then baked them at 250 for 45 minutes on one side, flipped them over and baked them for another 45 minutes. They came out perfect! I will definitely be making these again. A great snack instead of potato chips.

This recipe is great without any cinnamon or sugar too! :) I found it adequately sweet with no additional sugar and they came out incredibly crispy in just an hour. I expected to have to bake for two hours as most reviewers pointed out to, but they were already crisp IN the oven when I got them out to flip them over :). It was a nice surprise! I'm guessing that was because I did slice them by hand, into incredibly thin slices (I don't own a mandolin so I don't know how thick they're cut that way, but you could see the knife through mine as I was cutting them, and without gentle handing, they would rip). Therefore, for thin slices, 1 hour is more than enough, no flipping required! And I second the use of parchment paper!

These turned out very well. I lined the metal baking sheet with tin foil ( because ) I didn’t have any parchment paper. I sliced the apples by hand I kinda cup them rather small and thin but they turned out fantastic. After I put all the apple slices in a bowl and added the cinnamon and sugar but I put 1/2 teaspoon more of sugar. I stirred them until they were completely covers in the cinnamon and sugar. After I sprayed the baking lined with tin foil with spray butter the crisco kind. Then I placed all the apples on the baking sheet and I sprinkle another 1/2 teaspoon of sugar over them. I cooked them for about 50 minutes. The turned of heavenly. They were not crispy until they cooled completely. That took about an hour. But they were totally worth it. Lol. I totally wished I would have made more apples though. Because it only made about 40 apples. And I can eat some apple chips. I totally ate them in 24 hours. But they were so good I couldn’t stay out of them. I totally give this recipe 5 stars. They in my opinion were almost as good as the ones I get from Costco. Super yummy very satisfied with this apple recipe. And I will be making these again. Worth the time of slicing the apples. They were a super big hit. Double thumbs up. oh and make sure you store them in a clean glass jar they keep much longer that way. Store in a dark pantry or cabinet. I was very happy and satisfied with this apple recipe

These turned out perfectly! I used my mandolin to cut them thinly. I didn't bother coring. I cooked them on parchment paper, and flipped them over half way through cooking. After a minute or two out of the oven they were crisp and tasty!

I am going to make these, but I am going to dip them in vanilla yogurt, with a dash of cinnamon. I hope it turns out like I think!!!!

So, so good! I made them as the recipe said - they were great! But, I like a little heat - so for the next batch, I added Cayenne Pepper to the Cinnamon Sugar Mixture - Wow! I added about a teaspoon to the mix. If you like heat, add as much or as little as you like - YUM! Thanks for the recipe! Next time I'll add more heat.

So easy & healthy & yummy! I didn’t add sugar because I used really sweet apples, and I first cooked them for two hours, flipping halfway through. I sent some with my daughter to school the next day, and she said they were very chewy and she couldn’t even eat them. However, I re-cooked them and let them stay in the oven overnight at 200 degrees, and now they’re extra crispy and delicious! I did the same thing with the skin from other apples I peeled, and they turned out great too! Just lay out the apples in single layers and sprinkle w/cinnamon & cook.
