Air Fryer Cinnamon Apple Chips
Crispy, sweet, and naturally delicious—these apple chips are an easy snack you’ll feel good about. Lightly spiced and perfectly crunchy, they’re a great way to satisfy your sweet tooth without any guilt. Enjoy them solo or as a tasty topping for yogurt, oatmeal, or salads.
| Ingredient | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Large apples (Honeycrisp, Gala, or similar) | 2 |
| Ground cinnamon | 1 teaspoon |
| Nutmeg (optional) | ¼ teaspoon |
| Cooking spray (optional) | Light coating for crispness |
1. Prep Your Apples
Wash and core the apples. Slice them thinly—about 1/8 inch thick—for even cooking. A mandoline works best, but a sharp knife will do the trick. Uniform slices help them cook and crisp up evenly.
2. Add Warm Spices
Place the apple slices in a bowl. Sprinkle with cinnamon and, if desired, a touch of nutmeg. Toss well so every slice gets a nice coating of those cozy spices.
3. Ready the Air Fryer
Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray to prevent sticking and boost crispness (optional). Arrange the slices in a single layer—avoid overlap for best results. You’ll likely need to work in batches depending on your air fryer’s size.
4. Crisp to Perfection
Set the air fryer to 300°F (150°C) and cook for 12 to 15 minutes. Flip the slices halfway through for even crisping. In the last few minutes, check frequently to avoid burning—air fryers vary, and the slices can crisp quickly.
5. Cool and Crunch
Transfer the apple chips to a plate or wire rack and let them cool completely. They’ll continue to crisp up as they cool.
6. Time to Enjoy
Snack on them straight out of the bowl, or sprinkle them over your favorite breakfast or dessert for added crunch and flavor.
💡 Tip: Store cooled chips in an airtight container to keep them crisp for a few days—if they last that long!
