When I first decided to make apple chips, it was because I needed a good way to use up my apples. I also wanted a healthy snack for the kids, and I was really just curious about how they would compare to the store-bought brands. Well, not only were they so simple to make (it took about five minutes), they came out tasting much better than I could have imagined. Since that fateful day, we are avid apple chip makers, eaters and lovers.
