How To Make Dried Orange Slices
A Simple DIY Recipe
This is so fun! Light a candle, put on some Christmas music, and join me in making some orange slices for organic Christmas decorating!
This orange slice recipe was super easy, and really put me in the holiday mood! I hope you enjoy making them too. Let me tell you how to make them.
The How To
Line a 9×13 pan with paper towels, this is where you’ll set your orange slices after slicing them and will help release some moisture.
Slice oranges to about a 1/4 inch or 1/8 inch thickness. Line into pan and top with more paper towels each layer.
Tip: Use a serrated knife for precise cuts.
Once you are finished slicing the oranges, transfer them to a foil or parchment paper-lined baking tray.
Bake for about 3 hours at 250º, turning them over every 30 minutes to dry evenly.
Once done and cooled, you can poke a hole in each one with a wooden skewer. Tie twine around each one to make ornaments or string together to make a garland. And that’s it, really simple and so pretty!
