Dehydrated Strawberries
A yummy and healthy snack, add-in for baking or garnish!
Servings: 2 cups
Equipment
- dehydrator
- paring knife
- fruit slicer reccomended
Ingredients
- 2 lbs strawberries
Instructions
- Wash the strawberries and pat dry.
- Remove the hulls and slice the strawberries using the fruit slicer. If you are using a knife to slice them, cut the slices about 1/8 inch thick. You want the slices to be as uniform as possible so that they dry evenly in the dehydrator.
- Line each tray with the strawberry slices. Be careful not to overcrowd the trays. The warm air needs room to circulate.
- Close the dehydrator and set on 135℉. Let the dehydrator run for a minimum of 6 hours but it could take up to 10. After 6 hours periodically check on them. They should feel a bit rubbery but not wet. They will firm up once they cool completely.
- Once they are completely cooled. Store the slices in an airtight container and place them in a cool/dark place (like a pantry or cabinet).
