Equipment

  • sheet pan or dehydrator

Ingredients

  • 6-10 apples depending on how many apples you want to make
  • water I used about 10 cups, but this will depend on how many apples you use.
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 3 tablespoons pineapple juice
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon optional

Instructions

  • Core your apples and slice them into ¼-inch slices.
  • Combine the water, lemon juice, and pineapple juice in a large bowl.
  • Add in the apples and gently mix with your hands to ensure they are all spread apart and covered in citric water.
  • Let this sit for about 5 minutes.
  • Drain the water. If you are sprinkling with cinnamon, lay out the slices now and sprinkle with the cinnamon.
  • Spread the apple slices on your cooling rack on a cooling rack if you are dehydrating in the oven or the dehydrator shelves if you are using a dehydrator.
  • If you are using the oven, set it at 140-150 degrees for about 6-12 hours. For the dehydrator, set it at 135 degrees for 12-24 hours.
