Wash the apples thoroughly. With adult supervision, slice the apples as thinly as possible into rounds. Remove any seeds from the slices.
Mix the spices: In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg.
Arrange the apple slices: Lay the apple slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Sprinkle the spice mix evenly over the apple slices.
