Are you finding yourself with tons of apple peels this fall after baking pies and apple crisps and other apple desserts?
Well, don’t throw them out! You can make healthy snacks with them.
Make sure you slice the apples so you have strips no more than 1″ wide. Put the peels in a bowl and add in the spice mixture and toss. Adding a bit of water will help the spices stick to the peels. Spread in a single layer on a baking sheet (preferably on parchment paper) and bake about 2 1/2 hours at 250 degrees until peels are curled and crisp. Rotate half way thru baking. Let cool.
Here is the recipe ~
Peels from 12 apples
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 c. sugar
tsp or more of water
Mix all together.
Enjoy

Apples are a great snack, especially during the fall when they are in season! There are many healthy apple recipes available to enjoy.
My son would love those! {&So would I!} Thanks!
I had no idea you could do this–what a great idea! I always feel like I’m wasting when I make a pie or applesauce and I have to throw out the peel…
It is a good way to 1) save on garbage and 2) eat something yummy and new
I should make these for my kids!
This is a great idea, I am going to try it next time I make apple pie
Mmm… I love apples! These sound like a great snack idea!
I will have to try this. Can never have enough healthy snacks.
YUM! this sounds good!
Well! Now that’s a cool idea I would never have thought to do!
We’re making an apple pie next week, I’m totally doing this too.
The peel is actually my favorite part. Your recipe sounds even better. Thanks for sharing.
We need to try this. THank you!!!
That sounds really good and best of all easy!
Great idea! However my dogs are now going to be upset because I usually give the peels to them.
Well, maybe keep some for you, and some for them
LOL
What a great idea! Thanks for sharing!
what a unique recipe!
I love the idea of ‘repurposing’ apple peels. My 8 year old son loves apples and while he usually eats the peels, sometimes recipes call for peeled apples. I would rather eat them over tossing in the compost!
Never thought to do this. Thank you!
I need to try this sometime!
it sounds delicious!
