🍎 Air Fryer Cinnamon Apple Chips
Crispy, sweet, and naturally delicious — these Air Fryer Cinnamon Apple Chips are the perfect healthy snack! Made with just apples and a sprinkle of cinnamon, they’re easy to prepare and satisfy that crunchy snack craving without added oils or preservatives. Great for lunchboxes, after-school snacks, or guilt-free munching any time of day.
🧾 Ingredients:
2 medium apples (Fuji, Honeycrisp, or Gala work great)
½ tsp ground cinnamon
Optional: ½ tsp sugar or coconut sugar (for extra sweetness)
Optional: a light spray of oil (if needed, for extra crispness)
👩🍳 Instructions:
1. Prep the Apples
Wash and core the apples (peeling is optional).
Using a mandoline or sharp knife, slice apples very thinly — about 1.5–2 mm thick (thin slices = crispier chips).
2. Season the Slices
In a bowl, toss apple slices with cinnamon (and sugar if using) to coat evenly.
Optional: Lightly spray with oil for a crispier result.
3. Arrange in Air Fryer
Lay apple slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket or tray. Avoid overlapping.
You may need to work in batches depending on your air fryer size.
4. Air Fry
Air fry at 150°C (300°F) for 12–16 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Keep a close eye after 10 minutes — they can go from crisp to burnt quickly.
For extra crispness, leave them in the air fryer (turned off) for 5–10 minutes after cooking.
5. Cool and Crisp
Remove chips and let them cool on a wire rack — they’ll crisp up more as they cool.
💡 Tips: Use peeled, cooked, chilled shrimp for convenience. Add avocado or cherry tomatoes for extra flavor. Keeps well for 1–2 days in the fridge (perfect for meal prep!).
