Savory Apple Chips

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Whisking Kitchen Transforms a Sweet Snack with Cheddar and Rosemary

— May 19, 2015 — Lifestyle
Honey, maple syrup, sugar and cinnamon are some ingredients that are commonly paired with apple chips to make this satisfying snack even sweeter. But with her recipe for Cheddar Apple Chips, Elizabeth of The Whisking Kitchen blog makes this a snack that feels more upscale, gourmet and artisan than the apple snacks that often end up in lunchboxes for school kids.

The recipe is made with just three simple ingredients: sliced apples, sharp cheddar cheese and rosemary, which delivers both flavor and texture. Slicing with a mandolin makes for perfectly thin sections, but The Whisking Kitchen remarks that cutting with a knife works just as well. Although these chips could be prepared and served anytime as a healthy snack, they would also make great appetizers since the crispy, curly-edged apple chips present themselves so nicely.
Trend Themes
1. Savory Apple Chips - Creating unconventional flavors for traditional snacks can disrupt the snack industry and attract a more sophisticated consumer base.
2. Upscale Snack Recipes - Developing gourmet and artisanal versions of popular snacks can tap into the growing demand for high-quality, unique food experiences.
3. Innovative Snack Presentation - Exploring creative ways to present and serve snacks can enhance the overall snacking experience and create a memorable impression.
Industry Implications
1. Snack Food Industry - The incorporation of unconventional flavors and gourmet recipes can revolutionize the snack food industry and cater to changing consumer preferences.
2. Food Blogging and Recipe Development - Creating and sharing unique snack recipes through food blogs can attract a dedicated following and potentially lead to collaborations with brands and retailers.
3. Catering and Event Planning - Innovative snack presentation can differentiate catering services and add a touch of creativity to events, attracting clients seeking a unique and memorable culinary experience.
