Ingredients
- 1 large red delicious apple
- 1 Tbsp granulated sugar
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- Cooking spray
Instructions
- Slice the apple: Evenly slice the apple into 1/8th inch thick slices, removing any seeds. Arrange the slices in a single layer on a flat surface and set aside.
- Prepare cinnamon sugar: In a small bowl, mix together the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon until well combined.
- Coat apple slices: Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over both sides of the apple slices. Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Arrange slices in air fryer basket: Place the apple slices in the air fryer basket, being careful to avoid overlapping to ensure even cooking.
- Air fry the apple chips: Set the air fryer temperature to 300°F and cook the slices for 15 minutes. Toss the apple slices every 5 minutes, increasing frequency toward the end of cooking to ensure they become golden brown and crispy.
- Cool the chips: Transfer the apple chips onto a cooling rack and allow them to cool completely. The chips will continue to crisp as they cool.
- Serve: Enjoy your freshly made cinnamon apple chips immediately for the best crunch and flavor.
