Equipment
- Air Fryer
- Sharp knife
- Cutting board
- Mandoline slicer (optional)
Ingredients
- 1 large orange or grapefruit or 2 lemons or limes
Instructions
- Slice your citrus as thinly as you can (this is where using a mandoline comes in handy). 1-2 millimeters thick is ideal. Discard the ends.
- Arrange your slices in one layer in the basket of your air fryer and set inside. It’s okay if your slices touch - they just shouldn’t overlap.
- Select the “dehydrate” setting, and make sure you oven is set to the highest convection setting. Set the temperature to 175 degrees and the time to 2 hours and 30 minutes. You’ll know the citrus is ready when the pulp is transparent, with an appearance like stained glass!
- Once cooled, store your dried citrus in an airtight container. It should last at least 2 years.
