Baked Cinnamon Apple Chips Crunchy and Sweet Snack
Baked cinnamon apple chips are a healthy snack that kids and adults love. You can make them with just a few ingredients that you probably already have at home.
What do I need for baked cinnamon apple chips?
- 3 medium-sized apples (choose your favorite type)
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
- Optional: 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Start by preheating your oven to 225°F (110°C). This low temperature helps the apples dry out slowly, making them crispy. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. This step keeps the apples from sticking.
Next, wash and core your apples. I like to use a mandoline slicer to get thin, even rounds. Aim for slices about 1/8 inch thick. Thin slices bake faster and crisp up better.
In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. If you want a richer flavor, add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. This extra step makes a big difference.
Now, place the apple slices on the prepared baking sheets. Make sure to lay them out in a single layer. Do not overlap them; this ensures even baking.
Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture over the apple slices. Coat both sides lightly so every chip has flavor.
Bake the apple slices for 1.5 to 2 hours. Flip them halfway through to help them cook evenly. Keep an eye on them near the end. You want them crisp but not too dark.
Once they are done, let the apple chips cool on the baking sheets for about 30 minutes. They will become even crispier as they cool.
Store your baked cinnamon apple chips in an airtight container. They can last up to a week, but they might not last that long because they are so tasty!
Enjoy your crunchy and sweet snack, perfect for any time of the day!
