Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Wash the apples thoroughly and choose the type of apple based on your desired flavor.
  • Slice the apples into thin rounds, aiming for about 1/8 inch thickness.
  • Remove the seeds and core from the apple slices, keeping the skin on for added nutrition.
  • In a bowl, combine apple slices with lemon juice to coat each piece.
  • Sprinkle cinnamon, sweetener, and salt over the slices and toss to coat evenly.
  • Preheat your air fryer to 160°F (70°C) for about 5 minutes.

Cooking

  • Check frequently towards the end to prevent burning, and remove when golden brown and crispy.
