Cinnamon Apple Chips with Koru Apples

November 23, 2019

This post may includes affiliate links to products I truly use & recommend. I earn a commission, at no extra cost to you, if you purchase from my links. This helps keep JennaDanielle.com running and puts kibble in the fuzzdogs’ bowls. Thank you for supporting this crazy dream of mine!

When we were kids, my parents bought my brother and me a food dehydrator. It may as well have been the latest toy–we were so excited. We used that thing every few days, slicing up fruits and veggies to see how they’d dry and what they would taste like. Yeah, we lived on a farm in the middle of nowhere and rural living doesn’t provide many hobbies to kids under 10.

My favorite, hands down, were the dried apples. I’d slice them thin and make chips. I’d slice them thick and make soft, chewy treats. I’d sprinkle cinnamon on some and brown sugar on others. My mom never had to worry about feeding me enough fiber, that’s for sure.

I recently received some of these wonderful Koru apples as part of a campaign they’re working on with thefeedfeed. and figured I’d throw it back to the good ol’ farmhouse days with some apple chips.

Koru apples are crisp, sweet and juicy with an almost honey-like flavor. I was impressed by how slowly they browned after being cut, meaning you can use them to make pretty charcuterie boards and not worry about a brown apple ruining the look! Their slight acidity would also make Koru apples excellent to bake with.

This charcuterie board was my pride and joy for about 30 minutes. Then we ate it.

Cinnamon Apple Chips w/ Koru Apples

1 or 2 Koru apples
1 T. Stevia (or sugar)
2 T. cinnamon

Using a mandolin slicer, slice apples with 2.5mm attachment. If you don’t have a mandolin, just slice them as thin as you can.

Mix up the cinnamon and stevia in a bowl so it’s easy to pinch and sprinkle onto the apples. Be sure to sprinkle both sides of the apples!

Lay them out on a lightly greased cookie sheet and bake at 200º for 2 hours, flipping them halfway through. The apple edges will be wavy when they’re ready.

Note: they won’t get firm or crispy until they are taken out of the oven and allowed to cool!

I don’t core the apples before I slice them because I like the cute little seed stars. If you like to core your apples, by all means! I love this apple corer from Amazon.

We’ve been munching on these guiltless snacks all week! Some of the neighbor kids even tried them and liked them (score!). It’s nice to feed my family a treat that isn’t battered or covered in sugar.

Interested in learning more about Koru apples? Right now I’m teaming up with @koruappleusa and @thefeedfeed to ship one lucky winner some of these crisp fall fruits along with an Adventure Box so you can have your own fall picnic! Check out my giveaway here!

Adventure Box GIVEAWAY with Koru Apples and thefeedfeed

November 22, 2019

This post is sponsored by Koru Apples and thefeedfeed. While they are kind enough to sponsor me and this giveaway, all opinions are my own.

Desert sunset picnic with Koru Apples and charcuterie.

Ah, apples: the perfect fall fruit. We are so spoiled here in Arizona. In the fall, not only do we get all the best apples, our temperatures are also perfect for any outdoor activity, including hiking (my fav) and picnicking (other fav).

My favorite way to eat al fresco!

When Koru and thefeedfeed reached out to me about hosting a giveaway, I was super excited that I would get to showcase the unique and beautiful state I live in. Being outdoors is so important to me.

You may know by now that I love adventuring around Arizona, and the other morning I packed some Koru apples into my backpack and climbed a nearby mountain to catch the sunrise from the top. Starting a hike at 6 AM is not easy, but y’all, I am never disappointed by Arizona’s beauty.

PRO TIP: when adventuring, bring a healthy snack along with you!
