Servings: 1 | Suggested prep time: 5 minutes | Estimated cooking time: 8 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 medium apple
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
- Core the apple and carefully cut into very thin, even slices, about 1/16 inch.
- Arrange a small batch in one layer on microwave-safe parchment on a microwave-safe plate. Sprinkle lightly with cinnamon.
- Microwave 1 minute, then continue in 30-second bursts, watching closely, until slices begin to dry. Stop if browning excessively or scorching.
- Cool completely; slices may crisp as they cool. Repeat with the remaining slices.
Low-energy prep tip
Use an apple corer and prepare small batches; thin slicing still requires care.
Recipe notes
Results vary greatly by microwave and slice thickness; these may be chewy rather than crisp. Do not leave drying fruit unattended.
Dietary labels apply only when all packaged ingredients meet those requirements. Check labels and cross-contact guidance for your needs. Salt is optional where listed; follow your own care plan rather than using a recipe to set sodium intake.
