Candied Apple Chips

September 24th, 2012 by amanda

Back in our childless days I opened a Starbucks every morning which means I was usually off work hours before my husband came home. He used to joke that he knew everyday he’d come home to find me either asleep on the couch or on our back porch with my computer on my lap and a giant bag of apple chips in my hand.

Apple chips were a real addiction of mine but I haven’t really given them much thought since those days until I saw Tracey make some a few weeks back. And just like everything else Tracey makes, I couldn’t get them out of my head. I made them as an afterschool snack for my kiddos last week and they were eating them as fast as they came out of the oven. I think we went through 4 apples!

It’s really simple and you’ll see that it’s the world’s shortest ingredient list – just 3 things! And one ingredient is water! The apple is sliced really thin and then boiled in a simple syrup before being baked. It only took about 30 minutes from start to finish.
