NATURAL FRUIT CHIPS RECIPE IN THE DEHYDRATOR - GLUTEN FREE & VEGAN

Steps:

• Prepare Lemon-Water Solution by combining Lemon & Water in Spray Bottle (any unused portion can be stored the fridge for future use.)
• Layer sliced fruit on your Dehydrator tray/screen. Do not overlap fruit.
• For non-citrus fruits, spray generously with lemon water solution (you only need to do the tops).
• Place trays in Dehydrator and set temperature to 115-120 degrees (you can do it higher, but the nutrient loss will be greater).
• If your Dehydrator has a timer, set timer for approximately 10-12 hours and check fruit regularly for desired doneness. Rotate trays if necessary and set-timer so that the fruit will not over dehydrate.
• Store finished fruit in an airtight container (ie. mason jar, ziplock bag, etc...). Keeps best in fridge, and even longer if using a food sealer.

SPICED FRUIT CHIPS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200 degrees F. Combine sugar and spice in a small bowl and mix until evenly combined.
• Stem fruit and, using a mandoline, slice lengthwise into paper-thin slices, about 1/16-inch thick. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats and evenly space fruit on the sheets.
• Sprinkle sugar mixture over fruit and bake until lightly brown and dry and crisp around edges, about 2 hours. Let cool on baking sheets. Chips can be stored at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 10 days.

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
• Mix the sugar and cinnamon in a bowl; reserve.
• Place each type of sliced fruit on a separate silicone-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle with some of the cinnamon-sugar.
• Bake the apples until the edges curl, about 2 hours. Transfer to a cooling rack. The chips will crisp as they cool.
• Bake the mango and pineapple slices for 30 minutes, then flip and sprinkle with more cinnamon-sugar. Continue to bake, flipping the mango and pineapple slices every half hour, for 2 1/2 more hours. Transfer to a cooling rack. The chips will crisp as they cool.

• Make chips:
• Slice star fruit crosswise with slicer into 1/16-inch-thick slices.
• Bring sugar and water to a boil in a 2-quart heavy saucepan, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Add star fruit, then remove from heat and let stand, uncovered, 15 minutes. Pour star fruit into a sieve set over a bowl and drain 15 minutes. Reserve syrup for quince apple strudels .
• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 200°F. Put liner on a large (17- by 11-inch) baking sheet, then arrange star-fruit slices in 1 layer on liner (discard extra along with any broken slices). Bake until dry, 1 to 1 1/4 hours. Immediately transfer chips to a rack to cool.
