Ingredients
– 3 medium-sized apples (such as Fuji, Honeycrisp, or Granny Smith)
– 1 tablespoon cinnamon
– 1 tablespoon sugar (optional)
– Lemon juice (to prevent browning)
– Cooking spray (optional)
Instructions
Creating your own Air Fryer Cinnamon Apple Chips is simple! Just follow these steps:
1. Prepare the Apples: Wash, core, and slice the apples very thinly. A mandoline slicer works wonders for even thickness.
2. Prevent Browning: Soak the apple slices in a mixture of water and a splash of lemon juice for about 5 minutes.
3. Drain and Dry: Remove the soaked apple slices from the water and pat them dry with a clean towel.
4. Season the Apples: In a mixing bowl, combine the cinnamon and sugar. Toss the apple slices with the mixture until they are evenly coated.
5. Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 300°F (150°C) for about 5 minutes.
6. Arrange the Apples: Place the apple slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Ensure there is space between the slices for proper air circulation.
7. Air Fry: Cook the apple slices for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even cooking. Keep a close eye on them, as cooking times may vary.
8. Cool Down: Once they are crispy and lightly browned, remove them from the air fryer and let the chips cool completely. They will become even crunchier as they cool.
9. Store: If there are leftovers (though they might not last long), store the apple chips in an airtight container for up to a week.
By following these clear steps, you can effortlessly create delicious, crispy Air Fryer Cinnamon Apple Chips!
