Deliciously Healthy: Try This Thermomix Apple Chips Recipe

Looking for a healthy and delicious snack? These homemade apple chips made in a Thermomix are the perfect solution. They are easy to make, full of natural flavors, and are a great alternative to store-bought chips. Whether you’re hosting a party or simply want a guilt-free treat, these apple chips are sure to satisfy your cravings.

Ingredients:

4 large apples

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1 tablespoon sugar (optional)

Preparation:

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 120°C (250°F). This low temperature will ensure that the apple slices dry out slowly and become crispy.

Step 2: Prepare the Apples

Wash the apples thoroughly and remove the core. You can leave the skin on for added nutrients and texture, or peel it off if you prefer a smoother chip. Slice the apples thinly using a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer. Aim for slices that are about 2-3 mm thick.

Step 3: Toss with Lemon Juice

In a bowl, toss the apple slices with the lemon juice. This will prevent the apples from browning and add a subtle tanginess to the flavor.

Step 4: Add Cinnamon and Sugar

In a separate bowl, mix the cinnamon and sugar together. If you prefer a sugar-free version, you can skip the sugar altogether or use a natural sweetener like stevia. Sprinkle the cinnamon mixture over the apple slices and toss gently to coat them evenly.

Step 5: Arrange on Baking Sheets

Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Arrange the apple slices in a single layer on the baking sheets, making sure they don’t overlap. This will allow them to dry out evenly and become crispy.

Step 6: Bake in the Oven

Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake for 1 hour and 30 minutes. After the first hour, flip the apple slices to ensure even drying. Keep a close eye on them during the last 30 minutes to prevent burning.

Step 7: Cool and Enjoy

Once the apple chips are crispy and golden brown, remove them from the oven and let them cool completely. They will continue to harden as they cool down. Transfer the chips to an airtight container or serve them immediately.

These deliciously healthy Thermomix apple chips are a great snack for any occasion. They are gluten-free, vegan, and packed with fiber and vitamins. Enjoy them on their own or pair them with a dip of your choice. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to a week (if they last that long!). So go ahead, give this recipe a try and satisfy your cravings the healthy way!
