Ingredients
2 large apples (Honeycrisp, Fuji, or Gala)
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon granulated sugar (or coconut sugar for a healthier option)
1 teaspoon lemon juice
Instructions
- Wash and core the apples. Peeling is optional.
- Slice the apples into 1/8 inch thick rounds using a sharp knife or mandoline.
- In a small bowl, mix together the cinnamon and sugar.
- Toss the apple slices with lemon juice to prevent browning.
- Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the apple slices.
- Arrange the apple slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they don’t overlap.
- Set the air fryer to 300°F (150°C) and air fry for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Let the chips cool for a few minutes to crisp up further.
Notes
Peel the apples if you prefer a smoother texture.
You can skip the cinnamon-sugar for a savory snack or use sea salt instead.
Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a few days. Reheat in the air fryer for 2-3 minutes to restore crispness.
