How long does it take to cook a Fuji apple?
Whole apples take longer to be cooked through (30-40 minutes), but sliced apples are ready fast – all they need are 20 minutes in a 400°F oven. Should I add sugar? I don’t add any sugar when I make this recipe. Fuji apples provide more than enough sweetness, in my opinion. In fact, I find that fruit-based recipes rarely need added sugar.
What to do with Fuji apples?
These apples were very firm and kept their shape the whole time. Start with 9 of those flavorless, fuji apples- peeled and chopped. I like small pieces of apple so I can use it in more things like muffins or cakes. Sometimes I don’t feel like making a pie but I have a wagonload of judgy apples to use.
How to bake apple slices?
Place the apple slices in the prepared pan. Drizzle them with the melted butter and use your hands to coat them. Arrange them in the pan in a single layer. Sprinkle the tops of the slices with half the cinnamon. Bake for 10 minutes. Turn the apple pieces to the other side. Sprinkle them with the remaining cinnamon.
How do I make apple chips?

Remove the core from each apple. Using a mandolin slicer, slice the apples 4 to 5 mm thick. (A little less than 1/4 inch.) Lay apple slices on cooling racks.
