The tasty treat this week has given me issue after issue! I have made a previous tasty treat, but it wasn't so tasty...more like yuck! Perhaps it was the substitution that I used, or maybe its just not my cup of tea, but that was failure #1. Then I made a new indian dish...it was ok..not something I'd post on here though. I think I'll stick with tikka chicken masala instead..that dish was amazing.
So today in theme of the kids' 3 day weekend, making playdough and such, I decided to make a kids tasty treat. Spiced Apple Slices! Yum!
Now if you have a food dehydrator that makes this oh so simple. But even for me and my oven it was simple and worth it. Isabelle's having a sleepover and she and her friend both liked these fresh from the oven. But these definately have a lot of spice, your more than welcome to leave out the allspice, the nutmeg and cinnamon and sugar would be enough.
My grandma used to make apple chips in her dehydrator, but they were more chewy, and that's how I still like apple chips. So mine are pretty much 1/2 chewy and 1/2 crunchy..depending on how thin I sliced them. But its easily adjustable to your personal tastes.
Spiced Apple Slices
3-4 granny smith apples, sliced super thin 5 t. granulated sugar 1 t. cinnamon 1/2 t. nutmeg 1/4 t. allspice1/4 t. cloves Put sliced apples and spices in a gallon sized ziploc bag. Shake to coat evenly.
Put parchment paper over cookie sheets and spread apples over the paper. I spread them so that they were barely touching and laying flat, and it took two cookie sheets. Put in a oven set at 250* F for 2 hours, turning once after the 1st hour.
