Delightfully sweet and tangy, Kiwi Crisps are the ultimate guilt-free snack that combines bold tropical flavors with a delightful crunch. Made with fresh ripe kiwi slices brushed with a zesty mixture of granulated sugar, honey, and lemon juice, these oven-dried fruit chips are as easy to make as they are addictive. With just 10 minutes of prep time and a simple low-temperature baking method, you'll create a naturally sweet treat that's perfect for snacking, garnishing yogurt, or adding to your favorite granola. These homemade kiwi chips are low-effort, high-reward, and sure to become a pantry staple for the health-conscious snacker.
Preheat your oven to 200Β°F (95Β°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel the kiwis carefully using a vegetable peeler or knife. Cut them into thin, even slices about 1/8-inch thick.
In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar, honey, and lemon juice to create a light syrup.
Using a pastry brush, lightly coat both sides of the kiwi slices with the syrup mixture and place them on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Make sure the slices donβt overlap.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 1.5 to 2 hours, flipping the kiwi slices over halfway through the cooking time. The crisps are ready when they are dry to the touch and slightly firm, though they will crisp up more as they cool.
Allow the kiwi crisps to cool completely on the baking sheet before serving or storing.
Store the crisps in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week. Enjoy them as a snack on their own or as a topping for yogurt or granola!
