Ingredients:

  • 1 pound fresh strawberries

Instructions:

Preparation (15 minutes): Wash the strawberries and remove the stems. Slice them into even, thin slices, about 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick.

Arranging (5 minutes): Place the strawberry slices in a single layer on the dehydrator trays, ensuring they don't overlap for even drying.

Dehydrating (6-10 hours): Set your dehydrator to 135°F (57°C). Dehydrate the strawberry slices for 6 to 10 hours, or until they are dry and slightly chewy.

Cooling and Storage (30 minutes): Allow the strawberry slices to cool completely before storing them in an airtight container. They can be stored for several weeks.
