Gotta Get Some Apples !!!

Its apple picking time or just about in most places, so get out there and pick your own or buy them fresh at your local grocer. Nothing like a fresh crispy apple!

Also here a recipe for using those apples!

Oven Dried Apples: Serves 6

Dried apples are great for snacks and lunchboxes. You can also toss them into a spinach salad with nuts and grapes, serve with roasted pork or alongside a sandwich as you would chips.

Ingredients:

2 apples {Fuji, Gala or Honeycrisp}

1/2 teaspoon Cinnamon {optional}

To Make: Preheat oven to 225°F.

1.Slice apples as thinly as possible, about 1/8-inch or thinner (use a mandolin if you have one). 2.Arrange slices in a single layer on 2 baking sheets lined with parchment paper, and sprinkle with cinnamon if using.

3. Bake 1 1/2 hours; flip slices and continue baking 1 1/2 hours longer or until completely dry and crisp {they will not crisp more upon cooling}. Timing will vary depending on the moisture content of the apples and the thickness of the slices.

4.Let cool. Store in an airtight container up to 1 week
