To get started, brush the peeled apple wedges with melted coconut oil. If you prefer more sweetness, you can also add one tablespoon of raw honey or maple syrup to the melted coconut oil.

Next, coat them in a mixture of tapioca starch and ground cinnamon. Set them on a prepared baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through. When the apple fries are ready, serve alongside coconut frosting and enjoy!
