Dried Apple Rings

4.3(16)

Apple rings can be pretty expensive to buy in the store, and they often have more ingredients in them than just apples. Take control of your food and make it yourself. Dehydrated apple rings are probably the easiest snack to make.

Sweet Apples, Red Delicious has a strange texture when dried, they're not recommendedapple
1-2 Lemonslemon

Instructions (6 steps)

01Fill a large bowl about half-full with cold water and and lemon juice. I usually just eyeball it, about 1 lemon per 5-6 cups of water should be fine.
02Peel and core your apples. Slice them into very thick slices, about ½-inch. I like to cut my slices in half so they are half-moons, since I can fit more on a dehydrator tray.
03Place the apples slices in the lemon water as you go to keep them from browning.
04When all the apples are sliced, remove them from the water and place them evenly on the dehydrator trays, close but not touching.
05Dehydrate at 135°F until they are spongy and dry to the touch, but not crispy. This usually takes between 10-14 hours, depending on how accurately you slice the apples and the type of dehydrator you have. Keep an eye on them after the 10-hour mark to make sure they don't dry out too much.
