How to Make Apple Chips

  1. Preheat oven to 75°C (167°F) with the rack in the middle position.
  2. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and lightly grease with oil.
  3. In a bowl, dissolve 2 tablespoons of sugar in 2 tablespoons of lime juice and 1/4 cup of water.
  4. Set aside the lime juice mixture.
  5. Using a mandoline or sharp knife, slice 4-6 medium apples into 2-3 mm thick rounds. (Approximately 4-6 cups sliced apples).
  6. Place the apple slices in the lime juice mixture, ensuring they're evenly coated. Let sit for 5 minutes.
  7. Gently remove the apple slices from the lime juice mixture and arrange them on the prepared baking sheets in a single layer, ensuring they don't touch.
  8. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon of fleur de sel and, optionally, 1/4 teaspoon of curry powder.
  9. Bake for 4-6 hours, or until the apple chips are completely dried and leathery to the touch, flipping halfway through.
  10. Let the apple chips cool completely on the baking sheets before carefully peeling them off the parchment paper.
  11. Store the cooled apple chips in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
