Oven Dried Strawberries
Oven Dried Strawberries use sliced fresh strawberries, optionally sprinkled with sugar, and slowly baked at a low temperature until dried and chewy. This method concentrates their sweetness and flavor without preservatives, resulting in a natural snack or ingredient that retains strawberry essence with a slight chew.

Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups strawberry hulled & sliced, fresh
- 1-2 tbsp sugar optional
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 200 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the strawberry slices on the prepared baking sheet being sure to not crowd them. You will want the air to be able to flow easily between the strawberries. Sprinkle with sugar, if desired. (Note- Taste the strawberries when slicing them. If they are already pretty sweet, the sugar won't be necessary.)
- Place the strawberry slices in the oven & let them bake & dry for 2 hours. Take them out of the oven, flip them and then bake an additional 2-3 hours or until sufficiently dried.
- Allow to cool completely, and then transfer to an airtight container. Since there are no preservatives in these dried strawberries, they are best consumed within 5 days.
- Enjoy!
