Dehydrator Instructions:
Slice oranges 1/4″ thick slices. Press with paper towel to remove excess liquid. Lay slices flat on the dehydrator racks (do not overlap). Dehydrate at 160°F for about 3-4 hours.
Oven Instructions:
Slice oranges 1/4″ thick slices. Press with paper towel to remove excess liquid. Lay slices flat on a cookie sheet (do not overlap). Bake at 200°F or your oven’s lowest setting for about 3-4 hours.
Decorating Ideas:
Cut 10″ pieces of twine and thread twine through the slices using a yarn needle. Hang on your tree, garland, or anywhere you like! You can also thread the slices onto one long piece of twine to create a hanging garland for your tree!
