Pear & apple chips

From: Weelicious
2 Pears
2 Apples

1. Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
2. Using a mandoline, thinly slice the apple and pears into “chips”.
3. Place the slices on a Silpat or parchment lined baking sheet making sure not to over lap the pieces.
4. Bake for 1 hour, turning the “chips” halfway through (if you live in a humid climate, they may take a bit longer).
5. Cool and serve.

I definitely recommend putting in a couple trays @ a time, if possible. You will make quite a few chips, but they get gobbled up very fast! They're super, super yummy! I also suggest baking the pear ones a bit longer (only like a few minutes) because they are juicier than apples & need a few more minutes to get a bit crunchier.

***This is such an awesome recipe! My husband is a total pizza connoisseur & he asks to make this for dinner, so it MUST be good. :) And Roman gobbles it right up.
