Apple Chips (makes 25 to 50 chips)
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar (confectioners' or granulated)
1 teaspoon cinnamon (or more to taste)
Pinch of ground cloves
Pinch of nutmeg
1 large crisp apple, such as Braeburn or Granny Smith
Preheat oven to 200 degrees, then line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Stir together the dry ingredients in a small bowl, then sprinkle half the mixture onto the baking sheet.
Cut the apple into slices as thin as possible, up to 1/8 inch. (You don't need to peel or core it; the seeds will just fall off.) If you have a mandoline, cut the apple vertically into rounds. If you're using a knife, it may be easier to halve the apple lengthwise, then put the halves cut side down and make half-moon-shaped slices.
Arrange the slices on the baking sheet in one layer.
Sprinkle the remaining spice mixture over the apples, then bake in the middle of the oven for 11/2 hours.
Rotate the pan and bake for another hour, or until the apples are crisp. (If yours aren't getting crisp enough, try turning off the heat and leaving them in the oven overnight.)
Loosen the chips with a spatula, then cool for 10 minutes before removing them from the parchment.
They'll keep in an airtight container for up to one week. <<<---- yeah right!
