Vegan - Gluten Free - Paleo - Nut Free - Refined Sugar Free - Fat Free

Ingredients

1. 2 Crisp Apples (Fujis, Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, Pink Lady)
2. 2 tsp Lemon Juice (about 1/2 a lemon)
3. 1 Tbl Cinnamon

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 225F and line two sheet trays with parchment paper.
2. Slice the apples horizontally across the core on a mandolin (or with knife) as thin as you can.
3. Toss the apples in the lemon juice to prevent browning.
4. Toss the apples and cinnamon in a ziploc bag until well coated or you can also sprinkle by hand.
5. Lay the apples in a single layer on the lined sheet pans.
6. Bake for one hour.
7. Flip the apples.
8. Bake for an additional hour.
9. Turn the oven off and allow the chips to cool with the oven door shut or until they are very crisp and snap when pushed on lightly with your finger.

Notes

1. If these are left long enough to cool they will stay crispy stored in an airtight bag or container for a few days. This same process can be used with bosc pears.
