Steps:
- Heat oven to 200 degrees. Place a Silpat (French nonstick baking mat) or parchment paper on a baking sheet. Using a mandoline or a very sharp knife, slice apple and pears into very thin translucent rounds (slice pears lengthwise). Do not remove seeds or cores.
- Place sugar on a plate; dip both sides of fruit slices into sugar to coat. Transfer slices to baking sheet.
- Bake until edges begin to ruffle, about 1 hour. Turn slice over and continue baking until golden brown, about 1 hour more.
- Transfer chips in a single layer to a wire rack to cool and harden.
Tips:
- Choose ripe, firm fruits: This will ensure that your chips are crispy and flavorful.
- Use a sharp knife to slice the fruits thinly: This will help them cook evenly.
- Toss the fruits with a little oil and spices before baking: This will help them caramelize and develop a nice flavor.
- Bake the fruits at a low temperature for a long time: This will help them dry out and become crispy without burning.
- Let the fruits cool completely before storing them: This will help them to stay crispy.
- Store the fruits in an airtight container at room temperature: They will keep for up to 2 weeks.
Conclusion:
Apple and pear chips are a healthy and delicious snack that are easy to make at home. They are a great way to use up leftover fruits, and they are also a fun activity to do with kids. With a little planning and effort, you can make delicious apple and pear chips that will be enjoyed by everyone.
