Steps
Preparation
Preheat your oven to 100°C (80°C for a convection oven). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper. Wash the apples thoroughly, then slice them very thinly, about 1-2 mm thick, removing the core. You can use a mandoline for perfect thickness.
Seasoning
In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar with the ground cinnamon. Either toss the apple slices individually in the cinnamon sugar mixture or sprinkle both sides evenly with it.
Baking
Arrange the apple slices in a single layer on the parchment-lined baking sheets, making sure they don't overlap. Bake the apples for 1.5-3 hours, or until they are completely crispy. Flip the slices halfway through baking, and if necessary, swap the positions of the baking sheets in the oven for even cooking. Let them cool completely in the turned-off oven with the door ajar to make them even crispier.
Extra Tips
► Use a mandoline or a very sharp knife to slice the apples thinly; this is key for crispy chips.
► Baking time may vary depending on the thickness of your apple slices and your oven, so keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
► Experiment with other spices like nutmeg or apple pie spice blend for a different flavor profile.
