GERD Friendly Crispy Apple Chips

Snacking can feel like a minefield when you're managing acid reflux, but these baked apple chips hit that satisfying crunch without any of the usual triggers. Fuji or Honeycrisp apples bring natural sweetness, and a light brush of maple syrup keeps things gentle — no citrus, no vinegar, no spice blends that tend to aggravate symptoms. Ceylon cinnamon is the smart choice here because it's milder and less harsh than the cassia variety you'll find in most pantry staples, making it a much friendlier option for a sensitive stomach. The low-and-slow oven method does all the heavy lifting, slowly drawing out moisture until each slice curls into a delicate, paper-thin chip that crackles when you bite it. A tiny pinch of sea salt rounds out the flavor so these don't taste like a compromise — they taste like a snack you'd actually choose. Let them cool completely on the rack and they'll firm up beautifully, ready to stash in a bowl on the counter or pack into a bag for whenever a craving hits.
