5️⃣ Check for doneness – The strawberries should be dry to the touch and slightly chewy. If they are still sticky, leave them in for another 30–60 minutes.
6️⃣ Cool completely – Once dried, remove them from the oven and let them cool at room temperature. They will become slightly firmer as they cool.
7️⃣ Store in an airtight container – Keep them in a cool, dry place for up to 2 weeks, or in the fridge for a longer shelf life.
Ways to Enjoy Dried Strawberries

🍪 Use in baking—great for cookies, muffins, or granola bars.
🫖 Infuse in tea for a natural fruity flavor.
Bonus Tip: Dehydrating for Maximum Shelf Life
If you want to preserve your strawberries for months, consider using a food dehydrator instead of an oven. Set it to 135°F (57°C) and let the strawberries dry for 6–8 hours. They’ll last up to 6 months in a sealed jar!
