APPLE CHIPS

Categories     Snack

Time 4h

Number Of Ingredients 2

3 large sweet (crisp apples, such as Honeycrisp, Fuji, Jazz, or Pink Lady)
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Place racks in the upper and lower thirds of your oven and preheat your oven to 200 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or a silpat mat.
  • Wash the apples. With an apple corer, very small cookie cutter, or the round side of a metal piping tip, core the apples (you can also skip this step if you don't mind a few seeds in the chips). With a mandolin (recommended) or a very sharp knife, slice the apples horizontally into 1/8 inch-thick rounds.
  • Arrange the apples in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets. Sprinkle with cinnamon. Bake for 1 hour in the upper and lower thirds of the oven. Remove the baking sheets and switch the pans' position on the upper and lower racks. Continue baking for 1 to 1 1/2 additional hours, until a single apple chip removed from the oven is crisp when set out at room temperature for 2 to 3 minutes (to test the apple chips, remove a single apple slice but let the others continue baking). Once you are happy with the crispness (the total time will vary based on the thickness of your slice and the type of apple), turn off the oven and let the apples sit in the oven for 1 hour as it cools down to crisp further (unless you fear you overcooked them, in which case remove the pan immediately and let it sit at room temperature).

Categories     dessert

Time 5h15m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
14 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed and chilled
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup ice water
2 pounds apples, such as Granny Smith, peeled, cored and cut into 1/3-inch wedges
1/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 large egg, beaten
2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Chill the bowl and blade of a food processor for 1 hour before starting.
  • For the dough: To the food processor, add the flour and salt and pulse to combine. Add the cold butter and the cheese and pulse 3 or 4 times or until chickpea-sized pieces of butter remain. With the machine running, drizzle in the ice water until the dough just starts to come together. Turn the dough out onto a piece of plastic wrap and form into a flat disk. Wrap tightly and refrigerate for at least an hour and up to 2 days.
  • Position an oven rack on the lower third of the oven. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • For the filling: In a medium bowl, combine the apples, sugar, lemon juice, flour, salt and cinnamon. Toss well to coat evenly.
  • Divide the dough in half. Roll out one of the dough pieces to an approximately 11-inch round and line the bottom of a 9-inch pie plate. Fill the pie crust with the apple mixture. Roll out the remaining dough into another 11-inch round and place on top. Trim the edges so there is a 1/2-inch overhang around the plate. Tuck the overhang under itself and press down to seal the edge. Using 2 knuckles and the tip of your finger, crimp the edges to make a decorative edge. Cut an X in the center of the top pie crust and open the corners to make a small hole in the center of the pie. Brush the pie evenly with the egg and sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese.
  • Place on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until the crust is deep golden brown and the mixture inside is bubbling, about 45 minutes. Remove to a wire rack and cool for at least 2 hours before serving.

PARMESAN CRISPS

Categories     appetizer

Time 15m

Yield 30 crisps

Number Of Ingredients 1

4 ounces Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 sheet pans with parchment paper.
  • Grate 2 ounces of the Parmesan using the side of the box grater that finely grinds the cheese and then grate 2 ounces of the Parmesan using the side of the box grater that makes long shreds of cheese, and then mix them together. Drop rounded tablespoons of the grated Parmesan on the parchment paper to make neat mounds. Bake in the oven for 6 minutes until golden.
  • Cool slightly and loosen with a metal spatula. Serve at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Choose firm, slightly tart apples for baking, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Braeburn.
  • Use a sharp knife to thinly slice the apples, about 1/8-inch thick. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Be careful not to overcook the apples. They should be tender but still hold their shape.
  • If you don't have a kitchen torch, you can broil the apples in the oven for a few minutes to brown the Parmesan cheese.
  • Serve the apples warm with a dollop of crème fraîche or ice cream.
