What do you need?
- Airfryer: For that perfect, even crispiness.
- Mandolin or sharp knife: For cutting extra thin slices.
- A bowl: For mixing your ingredients.
Ingredients:
- 2 firm apples (Elstar or Granny Smith are ideal choices)
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- A little lemon juice (optional, to prevent discoloration)
Simple Steps to Perfect Apple Chips
-
Preparation: Wash the apples thoroughly and remove the core. Cut the apples into thin slices of about 2-3 mm thick. A mandolin makes this super easy, but a sharp knife works just as well.
-
Cinnamon magic: Place the slices in a bowl and sprinkle the cinnamon over them. Mix them well so that each slice is lightly coated with cinnamon. If you want the chips to retain their color, add a squeeze of lemon juice.
-
Airfryer action: Preheat your airfryer to 160°C. Place the apple slices in a single layer in the basket and bake for 12-15 minutes. Don't forget to shake the basket halfway through for even crispiness.
-
Cooling for the perfect result: Remove the apple chips from the airfryer and let them cool completely. As they cool, they will become even crispier – the ultimate indulgence!
