Ingredients
Scale
- 2–3 apples (Fuji, Gala, or Honeycrisp recommended)
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- Optional: 1 tsp lemon juice (prevents browning)
- Optional: 1–2 tsp maple syrup, coconut sugar, or sugar-free sweetener
Instructions
- Wash and dry apples. Core if desired, then slice very thin (about 1/8-inch or less) using a mandoline or sharp knife.
- Optional: Soak slices in cold water with lemon juice for 3–5 minutes to prevent browning. Drain and pat completely dry.
- Toss slices with cinnamon and sweetener if using, coating both sides lightly.
- Arrange apple slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket, without overlapping.
- Air fry at 300°F (150°C) for 14–20 minutes, flipping halfway. Check at the 10-minute mark for doneness.
- Remove and let cool for 5–10 minutes on a wire rack. They will crisp further as they cool.
Notes
- Slice apples as thinly and evenly as possible for maximum crispiness.
- Pat slices dry before air frying to prevent sogginess.
- Don’t overcrowd the basket—work in batches for best results.
- Let chips cool fully; they crisp up as they rest.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days. Refresh in the air fryer for 1–2 minutes if they soften.
