Dried Apples In The Oven Food

DRIED APPLES (IN THE OVEN!)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 225 Fahrenheit.
• Wash the apples, then slice them very thin, about 1/8". We recommend using a mandoline to slice. Leave the cores in the apples, but remove any seeds as you cut.
• Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Lay the apple slices on the tray in a single layer, as close as possible without touching. Sprinkle with cinnamon if desired.
• Bake for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, until curled and lightly browned. The chips will crisp after cooling for several minutes. (To test whether it is done, pull out an apple chip and set it on the counter for a few minutes until cool, then taste whether it is crisp.) Store the apple chips in a sealed container or mason jar at room temperature for about 1 week.

DRIED APPLES

Steps:

• Cut an apple in half and scoop out the seeds with a spoon. Slice into 1/4-inch-thick rounds. Lay on a greased baking sheet and bake at 200 degrees F until dry, 2 to 3 hours.

SIMPLE BAKED APPLES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 2 quart casserole dish, or coat with non-stick cooking spray.
• Place apples in a large bowl. In a small bowl, mix together sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves. Stir spice mixture into apples until evenly distributed. Fold in raisins and walnuts. Spoon into prepared dish. Pour milk evenly over apple mixture.
• Bake in preheated oven for 45 to 60 minutes, or until soft and bubbly. Allow to cool slightly before serving.

BAKED APPLES

Steps:

• Ask a grown-up to turn the oven on to 200C/180C fan/ gas 6. Sit each apple on the worktop and push the apple corer into the centre of each one (or ask a grown-up to do this for you).
• Mix the sultanas, muscovado sugar and cinnamon together in a bowl.
• Stand up the apples, side by side, in a baking dish. Using your fingers, push a little bit of the sultana mixture into each apple, using up all the mixture between them.
• Add a blob of butter to the top of each and sprinkle over the demerara sugar. Ask a grown-up to put the dish in the oven for 20 mins or until the apples are cooked through.

OVEN-DRIED APPLES

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients. Heat the oven to its lowest setting, usually between 140 F and 150 F.
• In a nonreactive bowl, mix water and vinegar (or lemon juice ).
• Use a vegetable peeler to remove the skin off the apples.
• Core apples with an apple corer or slice each apple into quarters. Cut off tough center of each piece.
• Using a sharp knife, cut apples into 1/4-inch-thick slices. As you slice apples, drop pieces into prepared acidulated water to prevent browning. Let slices soak while you finish slicing remaining apples.
• Drain apple slices in a colander , letting them sit for 2 to 3 minutes to drain off as much water as possible. If apple pieces are too moist, they will steam instead of dry in oven. To remove excess moisture, place slices on top of a clean kitchen towel and pat dry with a paper towel.
• Place cooling racks inside baking sheets and arrange apples on racks so slices are not touching.
• Place baking sheets in the oven. If you don't have a convection oven, prop oven door open with the handle of a wooden spoon to let steam and moisture escape. Let apples dry until they are a leathery or crispy texture, depending on your preference; this can take anywhere from 6 to 10 hours. If your oven is hotter in some spots than others, turn baking sheets around occasionally so that pieces dry evenly. Once apples have the desired texture, remove from the oven. You won't be completely sure if the apple pieces are fully dehydrated until they have cooled. Let apples cool on trays for 20 minutes.
• After 20 minutes, tear a piece of the fruit in half. There should be no visible moisture along the surface of the break. If the apple is still soft, return to oven for a bit longer. Start with 30 minutes and check for moisture again.

DRIED APPLE SLICES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 225 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with nonstick baking mats. Core apples, then slice paper-thin with a mandoline or a very sharp knife.
• Arrange slices in a single layer on prepared sheets. Sprinkle evenly with sugar. Bake, turning twice, until dry and edges begin to curl, about 1 hour, 5 minutes. Let cool completely on sheets on wire racks. Dried apple slices can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 1 month.

OVEN-DRIED CINNAMON-SUGAR APPLE PEEL CHIPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 225°F.
• Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In a small bowl, combine cinnamon and sugar. Sprinkle apple peels with cinnamon-sugar mixture and toss to coat evenly.
• Bake for 2 to 2 1/2 hours or until peels are thoroughly dried and snap-crisp when bent.
• Allow to cool for 10-15 minutes or until cool enough to touch. Gently break dried peels into 1 to 2-inch long pieces.

OVEN-FRIED APPLES

DRIED APPLE PIE

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Soak the dried apples in water overnight.
• Drain off the water and mix the apples with the sugar, cinnamon, and allspice.
• Line an 8-inch pan with one of the pie crusts and add the apple mixture.
• Dot with the butter and cover with the second crust.
• Slash the top of the pie for ventilation.
