Ingredients

Apple Chips

  • 6 Granny Smith Apple
  • 2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions

  • Wash and thinly slice apples ⅛ of an inch thick using a mandoline. In a large bowl toss the apple slices with cinnamon.
  • Preheat air fryer at 300 F. Dry the apples out by cooking them in the air fryer at 300 F for 20 minutes. Toss and flip the apples every 5 minutes making sure the apples cook evenly and the ones in the middle are tossed to the side. Apples will begin to shrivel. If the apples aren't yet dry after 20 minutes cook in 5 minute increments until all moisture is removed. If apples seem to be burning lower the temperature to 275.
  • Once the apple chips are dry crisp the chips. Turn the heat up to 325. Crisp for 6 minutes, tossing the apple chips at 2 minute increments.
  • Allow apple chips to cool completely before storing.

Notes

Tips for Making Air Fryer Apple Chips
  • Will keep for 5-7 days at room temperature in an airtight container. 
  • For the best results, use a crisp apple such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp.
  • Take your time to dry out the apples on low heat. Low heat dries the apple out, and the high heat makes them crisp. If they aren't dry after 20 minutes, add 5 minutes until they are completely dried out. 
  • Be sure to toss and move the apple around during the cooking process so that they bake evenly.
  • Use a mandolin to slice the apples very thin and evenly. Aim for ⅛ of an inch thick for each slice.
