OVEN-DRIED CINNAMON-SUGAR APPLE PEEL CHIPS
While making a large pot of applesauce, I chose not to discard the nutrient-rich peels but instead bake them into apple chips. It turned out to be an deliciously successful experiment. These apple chips are lightly sprinkled with cinnamon-sugar and oven-dried on parchment paper. To ensure even drying, it's important to make sure the peels are of equal/uniform thickness. Thicker peels will take longer to dry, and you need them to be completely dry for food safety reasons. For best results, use a counter-mounted spiral apple peeler; or just keep an even hand while peeling your apples. My family enjoyed these crispy treats, and I hope yours does too!

Tips:
- Choose the right apples: Use firm, crisp apples that will hold their shape well during baking. Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Pink Lady are good choices.
- Slice the apples evenly: This will help them bake evenly. Use a mandoline or sharp knife to slice the apples into 1/8-inch-thick slices.
- Coat the apples in lemon juice: This will help prevent them from browning. You can also use a mixture of lemon juice and water.
- Use a light coating of oil: This will help the cinnamon sugar mixture adhere to the apples. You can use olive oil, coconut oil, or melted butter.
- Sprinkle the apples with cinnamon sugar: Be sure to coat the apples evenly. You can use a mixture of granulated sugar and ground cinnamon, or you can use a pre-made cinnamon sugar mixture.
- Bake the apples at a low temperature: This will help them dry out without burning. Bake the apples at 200 degrees Fahrenheit for 2-3 hours, or until they are crispy.
- Let the apples cool completely: This will help them crisp up even more. Once the apples are cool, you can store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.

Cinnamon sugar apple chips are a delicious and healthy snack that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Whether you are looking for a quick and easy snack or a healthy dessert, cinnamon sugar apple chips are a great option.
