Description

Apple chips are thin slices of dehydrated apple that are commonly used as a crunchy and healthy ingredient in recipes or as a natural snack. Their light texture and sweet, slightly acidic flavor make them an ideal complement for salads, desserts, breakfasts, and nut mixes.

The origin of apple chips comes from traditional fruit preservation techniques through dehydration, very popular in regions with high apple production such as Spain, the United States, and several Latin American countries. These techniques allow for much of the flavor and nutrients of the fresh fruit to be maintained, in addition to extending its shelf life.

Properties: Apple chips are rich in dietary fiber, natural antioxidants, and B vitamins, especially if they are produced without added sugars or preservatives. They are a low-fat and low-calorie ingredient, ideal for balanced diets and healthy recipes.

Synonyms in Latin America: They are also known as pieces of dehydrated apple, dried apple, apple slices, or simply dehydrated apple. In some countries, the term apple chips is kept in its original form due to the widespread use of the anglicism in gastronomy.
