How to Dry Citrus Fruits at Home

You’ll need to start with a fresh piece of citrus. The trick is to get the fruits to cook long enough without burning them. The best way to test your method is to remove a few slices from your piece of fruit and cook them until they are dried and crispy. If your fruit is over cooked it will make your already hardy teeth even more brittle. You can then store the dried fruit for a long time in an airtight container for easy access. Start by slicing your fruit, making sure to remove the seeds and pith. From there, dry the citrus slices in the oven at 160 degrees F for about four hours. It can take anywhere from 12 to 24 hours to dry the fruit, depending on the size of your pieces. Also, adjust your oven temperature to about 180 degrees F. If you’re taking the dried fruit outside, let it sit in a warm location for a few hours before storing.
