Dried Orange Slices: The Incredible Ultimate Guide to an Amazing Snack

Ingredients

  • Fresh oranges (as many as desired)
  • Optional: cinnamon or sugar for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Follow these simple steps to create your own amazing dried orange slices:
  2. If using an oven, preheat it to 200°F (93°C). If using a dehydrator, set it according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
  3. Wash the Oranges: Rinse the oranges thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or wax.
  4. Slice the Oranges: Using a sharp knife, cut the oranges into thin slices, about 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick. Aim for uniform thickness for even drying.
  5. Remove Seeds: Check each slice for seeds and remove them as necessary.
  6. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the slices in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Make sure the slices do not overlap.
  7. Optional Seasoning: If desired, sprinkle a light dusting of cinnamon or sugar on top of the orange slices for added flavor.
  8. Dry the Slices: In the Oven: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Leave the door slightly ajar to allow moisture to escape. Dry for approximately 4-6 hours, flipping the slices every hour for even drying. In a Dehydrator: Arrange the slices on the dehydrator trays and dry according to the manufacturer’s instructions, typically around 6-8 hours.
  9. Check for Doneness: The slices are done when they are completely dry and crisp. They should not be tacky or moist.
  10. Cool and Store: Allow the dried orange slices to cool before transferring them to an airtight container for storage.
  11. Enjoy: Incorporate them into your favorite recipes or enjoy them as a healthy snack!
