{Recipe} Baked Apple Chips

Want a simple, healthy snack?

I found the idea over at The Italian Dish.

I did it before church on Sunday while the kids ate breakfast...

By the time we got home, they were ready to eat.

This is a healthy snack, especially if you use Brown Sugar Splenda.

Baked Apple Chips

3 Apples, medium

1/3 Brown Sugar or Brown Sugar Splenda

1 teaspoon Cinnamon

Using a mandolin, quickly slice the apples and place in a bowl with lemon juice to prevent browning.

Lay apple slices on two cookie sheets lined with parchment paper or a silpat.

Mix the brown sugar and cinnamon together with a fork, to get rid of any lumps.

Sprinkle mixture on all of the slices until gone.

Bake 2-4 hours at 200-225 degrees.

Note~ Do NOT use tin foil.

On the second batch I made with Gala Apples, I sliced them even thinner with the mandolin then placed them on foil.  Almost all of them stuck to the foil, rather than lifting up nicely like they did with the parchment paper.

Also, don't use nutmeg.  We experimented, and even with the small amount used... it was overpowering.
