Making Air Fryer Cinnamon Apple Chips is a straightforward process. Follow these steps for delectable results:

1. Preheat Your Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 160°F (70°C). This will ensure even cooking.
2. Prepare the Apples: Wash and core the apples. Using a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife, slice the apples thinly (about 1/8-inch thick).
3. Soak the Slices: In a large bowl, toss the apple slices with lemon juice to prevent browning. This also adds a nice zing to the flavor.
4. Season the Slices: Sprinkle the ground cinnamon, sugar (if using), and a pinch of salt over the apple slices. Toss until evenly coated.
5. Arrange in the Air Fryer: Place the apple slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overlaps to ensure crispiness.
6. Cook: Air fry the apples for about 15 minutes, flipping halfway through for even crisping. Keep an eye on them to ensure they don’t burn.
7. Cool: Once done, remove the chips from the air fryer and let them cool for a few minutes. They will continue to crisp up as they cool.
8. Store: Store any leftover chips in an airtight container; they should remain good for several days.

These simple steps will help you create a delightful and healthy snack that you’ll love.
