- Fresh strawberries
- Air fryer
- Parchment paper (optional)
Instructions:
- Wash and prepare the strawberries:
- Start by washing the strawberries thoroughly to remove any dirt and contaminants.
- Remove the green stems and any blemishes from the strawberries.
- Slice the strawberries into thin, uniform pieces. The thinner the slices, the faster they will dehydrate.
- Preheat the air fryer:
- Preheat your air fryer to a low temperature, typically around 130-140°F (55-60°C). Some air fryers have a specific “dehydrate” function, which is ideal for this purpose.
- Arrange the strawberries:
- If your air fryer comes with a dehydrating tray or accessory, use it. Otherwise, you can use the air fryer basket and line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Make sure to leave space between the strawberry slices for air circulation.
- Dehydrate the strawberries:
- Place the strawberry slices in the preheated air fryer. Keep an eye on them as they dehydrate. The time required can vary depending on the thickness of the slices and the specific air fryer model, but it generally takes anywhere from 2 to 6 hours.
- Check the strawberries periodically and shuffle them around to ensure even drying. You may need to rotate the trays or flip the slices.
- Test for doneness:
- The strawberries are done when they are leathery, crisp, and free of moisture. They should not feel sticky or moist to the touch.
- The total drying time may vary, so it’s essential to keep monitoring them to avoid over-drying.
- Store the dehydrated strawberries:
- Once the strawberries have reached the desired level of dryness, remove them from the air fryer and let them cool completely.
- Store the dehydrated strawberries in an airtight container or vacuum-sealed bag. Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight…
