From: tastingpage.com Makes about 40 chips and 2-1/2 cups of dip

Apple Chips
2 apples
1 lemon
1 cup of water
Cinnamon to taste and dust chips
Cashew Cinnamon Dip
1 cup raw cashews
1 medium cored apple, quartered
1 tablespoon honey or agave nectar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup water
Salt to taste

Place the cashews in a bowl and cover with water. Allow to sit for several hours, or overnight.

Preheat oven to 200, and line 2 large baking sheets with a Silpat or parchment paper.

Juice the lemon and combine with the water in a glass bowl, deep enough to put the apples in to rinse.

Cut the apples as thin as possible using a mandolin or sharp knife. If using a mandolin, place the stem side into the blade and slice, removing seeds after. After apples are sliced, run them through the lemon water, and then place them side by side on the lined baking sheet. Sprinkle with cinnamon and place in the oven.

After 90 minutes, flip the apple slices. Remove when apples are crisp, approximately 3 hours total cooking time. The chips will further crisp as they cool.

While the apples cook, drain the cashews and place in a high speed blender or food processor, along with the quartered apple, honey or agave nectar and cinnamon. Slowly add the water until the desired consistency is reached. Salt if desired. Serve with the apple chips.
