Preheat oven to 225F and line 2 large baking sheets
with parchment
paper. Sift 3 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
evenly onto lined
baking sheets. With a mandoline or other manual
slicer cut apples
crosswise into paper-thin slices. Arrange apple
slices in one layer
on sheets and sprinkle evenly with remaining 3
tablespoons
confectioners' sugar. Bake slices in upper and
lower thirds of oven,
switching position of sheets halfway through baking,
2 1/4 hours
total, or until slices are pale golden and starting
to crisp.
Immediately peel apple chips off parchment and
cool on a rack. Apple
chips keep in an airtight container at room temperature
2 weeks.
Recommended for garnish on ice creams and apple
desserts or as a
crisp, cookie-like accompaniment.
