- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch ground nutmeg
Instructions
Preparation
- Set your oven to 200°F (95°C).
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Using a mandoline or a sharp knife, slice the apples crosswise into thin rounds, about 1/8 inch thick. Make sure to remove any seeds.
- Arrange the apple slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle evenly with ground cinnamon and nutmeg.
Baking
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 1 hour. After that, flip the apple slices to ensure even drying.
- Continue baking for an additional 1 to 2 hours, checking periodically until the apple slices are dry and crisp.
- Once baked, remove the apple chips from the oven and let them cool completely. They will become crisper as they cool.

Notes
Consistency in slicing is key for uniform drying. Experiment with different spices like ginger or allspice for unique flavors.
