The New $2.29 Trader Joe’s Find So Good I'm Glad I Bought 2
This "deluxe" Trader Joe's find is so delicious that my son ate one whole bag on the way home from the store.
My family loves apples. Fresh, sauced, dried, you name it, we’ll eat it. So, I was really excited to try the Pink Lady Apple Chips with Cinnamon Sugar at Trader Joe’s, and I’m so glad I bought more than one bag.
What I Love About Trader Joe's Pink Lady Apple Chips
These are the deluxe version of apple chips, and they cost only $2.29 per bag. They’re delicate and crispy chips edged with apple skin, and when you open a bag, the aroma of cinnamon wafts up before you even take a bite.
Once you bite into one of these thin, wavy chips, the cinnamon and sugar sweetness hits your tongue before the deep, rich apple goodness envelopes your entire mouth. They’re pretty spectacular. Trader Joe’s also sells an Apple Chip Duo of dried crinkle-cut red and green apples for the same price that is tasty and unsweetened if you don’t want any extra sugar.
My teenage son opened a package on the way home, and while I had about four or five chips, he mowed through the entire bag, which contains two-and-a-half servings for normal people. “These are really good, Mom,” he told me.
He actually saved two chips for my husband to try, and he just raved about them. He thought they were a perfect snacking chip and I agree, but they’re also ideal for school lunches and after-school hunger pangs.
How I'm Using Trader Joe's Pink Lady Apple Chips
As the resident cheese-lover in my household, I know they'd dress up a cheese and charcuterie board. The cinnamon and apples would pair nicely with Brie, cheddar, and gouda, and they'd even complement blue and goat’s milk cheeses. Frankly, they’d probably taste great with most cheeses, except for some of the stinky rinds.
They could add a fun, crispy texture to a fruit plate, and they would taste quite good dipped in caramel or chocolate.
The apple chips, if crushed a bit, would be perfect in a fall harvest salad, especially with butternut squash and beets. You could also crush them and add them to pancake or muffin batter to make apple cinnamon pancakes and muffins.
Mostly, though, they’re perfect for snacking or for dessert all by themselves.
