Dried candied fruit
Rinse fruits or fruit rinds and cut into thin strips. Simmer slowly in a solution of
approximately 2 cups water and 2 cups sugar for 1½ hours. Test for tenderness. Place
on trays and dry until pliable (8-10 hours). Cool and store in an airtight container. Use
for snacks or in cooking.
Cherry pineapple
Drain canned sliced pineapples and maraschino cherries on paper towels. Place
pineapples on trays with cherry in center of each. Dry in dehydrator for 8-10 hours.
Orange crisps
Slice unpeeled oranges into ⅛" to ¼" inch slices. Dry in dehydrator for 6-15 hours until
crisp. The rind easily separates from orange meat for snacking. Powder rind or meat
for natural sugar or spice flavoring.
Honey and banana chips
Slice bananas ⅛" to ¼" thick. Place on trays and dry 8-20 hours until chewy. The
greener the banana the crisper the chip; The riper the sweeter. They're delicious plain
and natural. (Option: Dip slices into ¼cup honey mixed with ¼ cup lemon juice. Pat dry
with paper towels. Sprinkle lightly with nutmeg. This option will double the drying
time).
