Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  10. If desired, add some vanilla extract for extra flavor.
  11. Place the baking sheet in your preheated oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes or until the apple slices are tender but not mushy.
  12. Halfway through baking, give them a gentle toss to ensure even cooking.
  13. Serve warm straight from the oven or allow them to cool slightly before enjoying.

Notes

Store baked apple slices in an airtight container, refrigerate to maintain freshness.

Reheat slices in the microwave for 20-30 seconds, ensuring they stay warm.

Serve with vanilla ice cream for a delicious contrast and added flavor.

Use tart apples like Granny Smith for a perfect balance of sweetness and tanginess.
