Everyone loves a sweet snack for the trail, but you want to make sure that you aren’t going to crash – the answer is apple chips! Today I am going to share with you my super easy dehydrated apple chip recipe.
You will need a dehydrator I recommend either this one by Hamilton Beach if you won’t use it frequently and would like a budget option, or the Cabela’s heavy-duty dehydrator for a lot of use.
3 lbs of apples – these need to be apples that you like eating as a snack, this will be the main flavor of your apple chips. I suggest using Jazz apples. They are a good balance of sweet and tangy.
2 TBS cinnamon (optional)
Two ingredients?! So simple!
Alright, now it’s time for the dirty work, we need to core the apples and it gets messy so be prepared. Once you have your apples cored, you’re going to slice them up and lay them out on your dehydrator tray. Make sure that the slices are not touching. At this point, some people put lemon juice on the apple slices so they don’t brown, I honestly never do this. I do however LOVE lightly sprinkling the apple slices with cinnamon, it tastes great and your house will smell awesome.
Load your trays into your dehydrator and set it for 165 degrees! Check back in 5 hours and see if the chips are done to your liking, I find that 7 hours is where my family enjoys the apple chips best! There you go, enjoy!
