Dehydrated Apple Rings
Did you know that dehydrating food keeps most of the nutrients intact, plus it’s easier and takes up less space than canning or freezing? I got a dehydrator for Christmas and I’ve been having so much fun drying all kinds of foods. These apple rings are one of the most delicious things I’ve made so far! Walker would eat his weight in them if I let him. It’s a good things too since they are healthy and I have tons of apple to preserve over the next few weeks. So are you ready to learn how to make these dehydrated apple rings?? Let’s get started!
How to Make Dehydrated Apple Rings:
Wash and dry apples.
Mix 2 tbsp fruit fresh or lemon juice in 2 qts water to prevent browning.
Peel & Core Apples.
Slice apples 1/4 or 1/2 in. thick.
Place in fruit fresh and water mixture.
Arrange on dehydrator tray & sprinkle with cinnamon.
Set dehydrator to fruit & veggie setting (135-145 F).
Run dehydrator until apples are chewy and leathery. I let mine run for 18 hrs, but it seems to take longer than other dehydrators. I think the recommend time length is 8-12 hrs.
Store in air tight container such as mason jar or ziplock bag. If condensation occurs your apples are not dehydrated all the way.
These dehydrated apple rings really are a delicious snack that everyone will love and they make your house smell amazing!!
