Embrace the cozy aroma of cinnamon and apples wafting through your kitchen, and treat yourself to a homemade snack that’s as nourishing as it is tasty!
Preheat your oven to 200°F (93°C) and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
Wash and core the apples. Using a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer, slice the apples as thinly as possible (about 1/8 inch thick). Discard any seeds.
Arrange the apple slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets, ensuring they don’t overlap.
In a small bowl, mix the ground cinnamon and granulated sugar (if using). Lightly sprinkle the mixture over both sides of the apple slices.
Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven. Bake for 1 hour, then flip the slices over and bake for an additional 1 hour. Keep a close eye during the last 15 minutes to prevent burning.
Remove the apple crisps from the oven once they are dry, crispy, and lightly golden. Allow them to cool completely on the baking sheets, as they will crisp up further as they cool.
Store the cooled apple crisps in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week. Enjoy!
