Description

Crispy and delicious Air Fryer Apple Chips coated with a fragrant cinnamon sugar mixture. These healthy snacks are quick to prepare, naturally sweet, and perfect for satisfying your crunchy cravings without added preservatives or artificial flavors.

Ingredients

Apples

  • 2 medium apples (any variety, such as Fuji or Granny Smith)

Cinnamon Sugar Coating

  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • A pinch of salt (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the apples: Wash and dry the apples thoroughly. Using a mandolin slicer or a sharp knife, slice the apples very thinly (about 1/8 inch thick). Remove the core and seeds if desired to ensure uniform slices and easy eating.
  2. Make the cinnamon sugar: In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt if using. Mix well to create an even cinnamon sugar blend that will coat the apple slices.
  3. Coat the apple slices: Lay the apple slices out on a clean surface or place them in a bowl, then lightly sprinkle or toss them with the cinnamon sugar mixture, ensuring both sides of each apple slice are evenly coated.
  4. Preheat the air fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for approximately 3 to 5 minutes to ensure even cooking and crispiness.
  5. Air fry the apple chips: Arrange the cinnamon-sugar coated apple slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket, avoiding overlap. Depending on your air fryer size, you may need to cook in batches. Cook for 10-12 minutes, flipping the slices halfway through to promote even crisping, and watch closely to prevent any burning.
  6. Cool and serve: Remove the apple chips from the air fryer and allow them to cool for a few minutes. As they cool, they will crisp up further. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to one week to maintain freshness.

Notes

  • Use a mandolin slicer for uniformly thin apple slices and consistent crisping.
  • Flip the apple slices halfway through cooking to ensure even browning and texture.
  • Keep a close eye on the apple chips during air frying as cooking times may vary based on air fryer models and apple slice thickness.
  • For an extra touch, try sprinkling a little extra cinnamon after cooking for enhanced flavor.
  • Store completely cooled apple chips in an airtight container to retain crispiness and avoid moisture buildup.
