These Air Fryer Apple Cinnamon Chips are a healthy and delicious snack that combines the crispy texture of apples with the warm flavor of cinnamon. Paired with a creamy yogurt dip, they make for a delightful treat perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium apples (such as Honeycrisp or Fuji)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon sugar (optional, adjust based on sweetness preference)
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 cup plain yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon honey (or maple syrup for a vegan option)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional, for additional flavor)

Instructions

  1. Start by thoroughly washing the apples. Then slice them into thin rounds (about 2-3 mm thick) and remove the core. The thinner the slices, the crispier the chips will be.
  2. Place the apple slices in a large bowl and add the lemon juice. Mix well to ensure the apple pieces are evenly coated. The lemon juice prevents the apples from browning and adds a fresh flavor.
  3. Sprinkle the cinnamon, sugar (if using), and pinch of salt over the apples. Mix again until the slices are well coated with the spices. Make sure each slice is evenly seasoned for the best flavor.
  4. Preheat your air fryer to 160 °C (320 °F). This usually takes about 3-5 minutes, depending on the model. A preheated air fryer ensures that the chips cook evenly and become nice and crispy.
  5. Lay the seasoned apple slices in a single layer in the basket of the air fryer. Ensure they do not overlap so that the air can circulate well. This is crucial for the crispiness of the chips.
  6. Fry the apple chips for 15-20 minutes. Check the doneness after 10 minutes and shake the basket to ensure even browning. The chips are done when they are golden brown and crispy.
  7. While the chips are in the air fryer, prepare the yogurt dip. In a small bowl, mix the plain yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract. Optionally add the ground cinnamon and stir well until everything is combined. The dip should be creamy and flavorful.
  8. Once the apple chips are done, let them cool for a few minutes. Serve them alongside the yogurt dip. Enjoy the combination of warm, crispy chips and the cool, creamy dip!

Keywords: A common mistake is cutting the apple slices too thick. Make sure to slice them evenly and thinly for even cooking and crispiness. You can also experiment with the amounts of cinnamon and sugar to suit your personal taste.
