Help Prevent Oxidation by Doing This


Apple Spraying with lemon juice

To prevent oxidation while dehydrating apples (that's what makes the apples turn brown - and bananas for that matter) - we spray the apples with good old lemon juice. (Professional food dehydration plants use ascorbic acid.

Tip: When apples are out of season, consider using frozen apples instead. As noted in the instructions below, you won't have the peel the apples, plus you don't need to use apple juice to spray the apples in step 2 ...

Now just how easy is that?

Dehydrating Apples is Easy:

It's time to begin dehydrating apples! So much fun ...

If using frozen apples, ignore steps 1 and 2.

  1. Peel, core, and slice your apples by hand or with a handy apple-peeler-corer gadget.
  2. Place slices in a bowl and generously spray with lemon juice. TIP: Use a pump-top from a new unused spray bottle, pick one that fits your lemon juice bottle, look for one that has a long enough plastic tube that will reach to the bottom of your lemon juice bottle.
  3. Arrange the apple slices on your dehydrator trays, making sure the apples don't overlap.
  4. Turn on your food dehydrator and set the temperature between 125°F and 135°F
    (or per your food dehydrator's instructions).
  • Delicious dried apples are pliable when dried.
  • Drying time: between 4-10 hours.
  • Please remember to rotate your dehydrator trays for even drying.
