Dehydrated Apple Treats

2.5 lbs Apples (organic)

tbsp Cinnamon (ground)

Wash, peel and core apples

Slice apples thin and even, about 1/4" with a mandolin or knife

Lay sliced rings on dehydrator trays, leave a small amount of space around each slice to allow air to circulate

Sprinkle apple slices with a very light dusting of cinnamon

Dehydrate at 135°F (57°C) for 6 to 8 hours, check at the 6 hour mark and continue to dry depending on the desired texture and if they will get eaten fast or stored

Check for, both inside and outside of rings, ideal slices will feel dry and leathery without being sticky

Tear an apple slice in half to check for moisture on the inside, it should resemble a dry sponge-like texture

Once done, cool for several hours and store in an airtight bag or container - make sure they are completely cool so as not to create any moisture

Give one to your pup, and to yourself and then store the rest in a dry, cool, dark place for up to a month
