Dried Apple Rings

We finally made those oven dried apple rings that we mentioned several weeks ago. They’re fabulous!  The adults love them as much as the kids do.  They make a perfect snack for back to school.

These apple rings still have a little moisture to them.  If you are going to store them for a long time, you might want to dry them out even more by keeping them in the oven a little longer.  Storing them has not been an issue in our house since they’re all gone within a couple of days.

In an effort to be somewhat energy efficient, I throw in a fresh batch whenever the oven is already on after baking something else.

We’ve also discovered that sprinkling a little cinnamon on top before they go in the oven, is a great addition.

 

Here’s a photo gallery of how we made them.
Wash, peel, core and slice apples.

 

Soak in lemon water for 5 minutes.

 

Drain and pat dry.
Place on rack on top of cookie sheet.
Put in oven for 3-4 hours. 

 

Take out when dry – chewy but not crispy.
