Homemade Dried Apples
Never had I thought of making my own dried apples. I was actually tempted by Angie @ Angie's Recipes after saw her using her homemade dried apples on some of her beautiful baked goods.And this is also another good way to finish off the leftover apples other than cooking them juicy fresh. It's too another best way for storage. Here let me show you how I did it.
Slice apples into a spiral with thickness as thin as 1/3-1/2cm. I prefer keeping the apple skin & seed attached in whole. Line them onto parchment paper and then sprinkle on some cinnamon powder mixture.
Finally, bake at preheated oven 170'c for the first 10 mins and then 150'C for an hour. Have to watch them closely. Immediately withdraw them from the oven when apple started to turn dark brown. For storage, pack them into plastic bags or containers and then keep refrigerated. It can at least last for 6-9 months.
There's also another way drying apple by traditional method. You may hang out all the sliced apples and then sun dry under the hot sun till done. Well, it may take days but it's the easiest & cheapest way.
