Ingredients
  

2 large apples (preferably Honeycrisp for sweetness or Granny Smith for a tart flavor)

1 cup Greek yogurt (choose either plain or vanilla flavored for added sweetness)

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (feel free to adjust based on your preferred sweetness level)

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, for extra flavor)

Pinch of salt

Cooking spray or a silicone baking mat for easy cleanup

Instructions
 

Prepare the Apples: Begin by preheating your oven to 225°F (107°C). Wash the apples thoroughly under running water. Core each apple using an apple corer or paring knife, and then slice them into thin rounds, approximately 1/8 inch thick. Thinner slices will yield crisper apple chips.

    Cinnamon Mixture: In a small mixing bowl, combine the ground cinnamon and a pinch of salt. If using honey or maple syrup, incorporate it by whisking it into the Greek yogurt along with the optional vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and fully blended.

      Coat the Apple Slices: Lightly coat a baking sheet with cooking spray or line it with a silicone baking mat for easy removal. Arrange the apple slices in a single layer on the baking sheet. Using a brush or spoon, generously spread a thin layer of the yogurt mixture over each apple slice. Top each slice with a sprinkle of the cinnamon mixture.

        Bake the Apple Chips: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Bake the apple slices for approximately 1.5 to 2 hours, flipping them halfway through to ensure even drying. The apple chips are ready when they are dry and have a crisp texture.

          Cool and Store: Once the apple chips are perfectly crispy, take them out of the oven and allow them to cool completely on the baking sheet. After cooling, transfer the chips to an airtight container or a freezer-safe bag. For a refreshing treat later, consider freezing them.

            Serve: Enjoy your crispy cinnamon apple chips as a nutritious snack on their own or use them as a delightful topping for smoothies, yogurt bowls, or salads!
