CRISPY CINNAMON APPLE CHIPS RECIPE (Only ~90 kcal/serving) 🍂

Ingredients:

2 medium apples (~300g)

1 tsp cinnamon (~3g)

Super Easy Instructions:

Preheat your oven (or air fryer) to 120°C (250°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.

Slice the apples very thinly and evenly (using a mandoline slicer gives the best results!).

Arrange the apple slices in a single layer on the tray. Make sure they aren't overlapping.

Sprinkle the cinnamon powder evenly over all the slices.

Bake low and slow for 1.5 – 2 hours. Remember to flip them halfway through. Keep an eye on them until they look dry and crispy.

Take them out and let them cool completely—they will crisp up even more as they cool!
