Step-by-Step Instructions for Baked Apple Chips
  1. Preheat your oven to 200°F (95°C). Gather your ingredients and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare baking sheets by lining them with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  3. Slice apples crosswise into thin rounds, about 1/8 inch thick, discarding seeds.
  4. Optionally brush apple slices lightly with lemon juice to prevent browning.
  5. Arrange apple slices in a single layer on prepared baking sheets without overlapping.
  6. In a small bowl, mix cinnamon and sugar, if using, and sprinkle over sliced apples.
  7. Bake in preheated oven for 1 hour to remove moisture without caramelizing.
  8. After 1 hour, flip each apple slice and return to the oven for another hour.
  9. Continue baking for an additional hour or until chips are crisp and lightly golden.
  10. Allow chips to cool completely on baking sheets to enhance crunchiness.
  11. Store cooled chips in an airtight container in a cool, dry place.
