Homemade Dried Orange Garland

navel oranges

mandolin or sharp knife

baking sheet

parchment paper

Use a mandolin or sharp knife to cut the oranges into 1/8 &#8211; 1/4th inch thick slices.

Lay the orange slices on a paper towel or clean, thin tea towel and press out any extra juice. This will save you some time on the baking step because you&#8217;re already doing some of the work and getting out excess juice.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange them in a single, even layer. You don&#8217;t want any overlapping because then they won&#8217;t dehydrate evenly.

Bake according to thickness. For 1/4th inch thickness, bake for 4 hours, flipping halfway through. For 1/8th inch thickness bake for 3 hours, flipping halfway through.

Allow the orange slices to cool on the baking sheet.

Use a toothpick or skewer to poke two holes in either side of the dried orange slice.

Use a piece of string or twine to string up the orange slices in a line.

I like to tie a loop at each end so I can easily hang the garland by looping it on a nail or branch.

String up your garland on your mantle, on your tree, along a hanging picture or mirror, a door, the are so many fun ways to use your orange garland!
