Snacking on a low-iodine diet can feel limiting, but this simple treat proves otherwise. Thinly sliced apples ā Fuji or Honeycrisp both work beautifully ā get a light brush of maple syrup and a dusting of Ceylon cinnamon before a long, slow bake transforms them into something genuinely crunchy and satisfying. The low-and-slow oven method does all the heavy lifting, pulling moisture out of each slice until the edges curl and the chips crisp up on the cooling rack. A pinch of fine sea salt rounds out the sweetness without tipping into high-iodine territory the way iodized table salt would. These are the kind of snacks that disappear fast, so consider making a double batch while you have the oven going. Store them in an airtight container and they hold their crunch beautifully for days ā if they last that long.

Preheat the oven to 225°F (107°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Using a mandoline or a sharp knife, slice the cored apples crosswise into rounds about 1/16-inch (1.5mm) thick ā as uniform as possible so they dry at the same rate.
