Planning to peel apples to make apple pie or applesauce? Instead of throwing those skins away, bake them. They make a delicious healthy snack. Normally I just compost mine in my big composting bin out back, but I decided to try baking them this year instead. My kids loved them, and had enough left over to send some to school with them this morning for their in school snack.
Baked apple skins
Ingredients
Apple Skins/peels
Cinnamon Sugar
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400F. Arrange skins in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake at 400 for 12-15 minutes. Just until the skins start to turn brown and curl up around the edges. Remove from the oven and while they are cooling, sprinkle with some cinnamon sugar. Allow to cool completely. Once cooled they will become a sweet, crunchy snack. Store in either an airtight container or a zip-lock bag.
