Making Dried Apples
Use well-ripened, but still firm fruit with solid flesh and tart-sweet flavor. Wash and core. Peel or not according to preference. Cut in wedges 1/4 inch thick (6.25 mm).
Dehydrator: Slice apples onto trays. Spread slices one layer deep on trays, without overlapping slices. (Work quickly) Put each tray in the dehydrator as soon as it is full. Dry at 115 degres F (45 C) for 6 to 8 hours, stiring or turning fruit once. After the first 6 hours test for dryness every 2 hours until there is no moisture in the center when slice is bitten.
To Usesliced dried apples are delicious eaten as a snack, or they may be used almost any way cooked apples are used. One cup(250 ml) yields about 1 1/4 cups (315 ml) cooked or refreshed apples.
I got this information from Making and Using Dried Foods by Phyllis Hobson.

A Little Woman
“It was a cheerful, hopeful letter, full of … fatherly love …’I know… that they will be loving children to you, will do their duty faithfully, fight their bosom enemies bravely, and conquer themselves so beautifully that when I come back to them I may be fonder and prouder than ever of my little women.’” Little Women by Louisa May Alcott
I am thirteen years old living in a Christian Homeschooling family with my Mother, my father, my sister Hanna (9) and my brother Spencer (10).
We are currently going through the adoption process, hoping to adopt an infant from somewhere in the United States, praying and trusting God that he has the right child/children for our family.Other Great Blogs
