Step by step recipe

• 1: Preheat the oven to 210°F (100°C).
  Rinse and dry 1 apple.
  Remove the core with an apple-corer (as in this photo). You can peel the apple, if you prefer, but this is not essential.
• 2: Slice the apple(s) very thinly. The best tool for this is a mandolin.
• 3: Arrange the apple slices, without overlapping, on a sheet of cooking parchment and slide this onto a baking sheet.
• 4: You can sprinkle a little caster sugar over the apples if you like, but this is not essential.
• 5: Bake in the oven for about 2 hours.
  To check if the crisps are ready, take one off the baking sheet and leaving it to cool. It should be brittle and crisp, not soft and bendy.
• 6: Unstick the apple slices from the paper (which you can reuse) while they are still hot and leave to cool on a wire rack.

Remarks

You will get the best results with well-flavoured, slightly sharp apples, such as reinettes or Cox's orange pippin.
