Prep Time 30 minutes
Cook Time 10 hours
Total Time 10 hours 30 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 30 Fresh Picked Apples ( I used September Wonder)
  • 1/2 Cup Lemon Juice
  • Large Bowl of Water

Method
 

  1. Wash and dry your apples.
  2. Remove the core from each apple. Peeling is optional. Place in the lemon water bowl..
  3. Slice each apple into very thin circles. Allow the apples to sit in the lemon water as you keep grabbing apples.
  4. Lay the sliced apples on a parchment lined cookie sheet or dehydrator tray. Pat each slice with a paper towel.
  5. Sprinkle with cinnamon, optional.
Oven-Dried Apples
  1. Place your cookie sheets in a 140 degree oven. Allow to dry for 8-10 hours. If needed, crack your oven at the handle just loosely to allow for steam and moisture to escape.
  2. They should be pliable when ready.
Dehydrator Apples
  1. Place the trays in your dehydrator. Set the temperature at 135 degrees for 4-6 hours.
  2. They should be pliable when ready.

Notes

1. Cinnamon is optional. I like doing a batch of plain and cinnamon.
2. Make sure you store your dehydrated apples in a sealed tight container.
