Fruit Leather and Apple Chips
I've been making apple chips and apple sauce. I have 9 trays for my Nesco Professional Dehydrator. I can dry about 7 apples at a time. It takes around 12 hours to dry apples about 1/4 inch thick. I use the medium blade on my mandolin. I have left over applesauce from last year. I found that I can make fruit leather with it. I only have 2 fruit leather trays. I start drying the apples after a couple hours the apples have shrunk enough that I can rearrange the trays to gain 2 empty trays. I put the fruit leather insert on them and 1 pint of apples sauce fits per tray. I let it dry over night and then have wonderful fruit leather and didn't waste any food!
