Quest 98: Apples Chips

DSC_0123

Apples are falling out of the trees - literally. There are so many apples that we have had to come up with some ways to use them. In my BotW game, I seriously have hundreds of apples. So today, we will be making our own apple chips. This is easier than you think. If you don't have a dehydrator, you can do this recipe in the oven, but I do recommend a dehydrator. There are a lot of things you can make and preserve. Enjoy!

Gear!
Apples - Use your favorite. We used honeycrisp
1 T White Vinegar
1/2 cup sugar
1 T cinnamon
1 t pie spice
Dehydrator

First let's prep the area! Cover your table with newspapers and get your apple peelers and bowls prepped. The peelers we are using also have the added advantage of slicing at the same time. This will skip a step later.

Next, let's wash up our apples. Fill up the sink with cold water and add a tablespoon of white vinegar. Add the apples and move them about in the water gently. Let them sit for about 5 minutes. This will help get rid of any pesticides, bugs or other not great things you probably don't want to eat.

Remove from the water and dry the apples. Place in a bowl for easy reach. As you can see, we did quite a few apples today.
DSC_0114After some trial and error, we decided to just slice the apples and keep the peels. This gadget has the option of doing it either way.

Mix up your cinnamon mixture for dipping the apples.

We did some apples plain and some with the cinnamon mixture. We had so many apples, that it was fun to mix it up. Plain apples can go straight to the dehydrator.

The other apples can go in the cinnamon mixture.

Spread out in an even layer on each tray.

Set your dehydrator to about 135 degrees F. Check the trays every few hours. It does help to rotate the trays as you go along. Once the chips are dehydrated to your liking, remove and place in an air tight container. Enjoy!
