Food To Be Fit: Apple Chips

I've really been feeling the veggie/fruit chips lately and these are my favourite so far! They take a while to make, but it is well worth it. Everyone will love these fresh, preservative free, apple chips. Note to remember: Apples shrink and shrivel when baked. Keep this in mind when creating apple chips for the whole family - you will need to make multiple batches using many apples. 

Ingredients:

• 3 fresh apples
• 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
• 1 tsp coconut sugar

 

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 225 F. Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. Slice apples using a mandolin.
3. Remove any seeds from the apple slices.
4. Spread in a single layer on top of the parchment paper and sprinkle with the cinnamon/coconut sugar mixture.
5. Bake for 60 minutes.
6. Turn the chips over, sprinkle with more of the cinnamon/coconut sugar mixture.
7. Bake for another 45-60 minutes, or until lightly browned and crunchy.
8. Store in an airtight container.
