Homemade Oven-Dried Strawberries: A Healthy Sweet Snack (Page 2 ) | April 9, 2025

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.

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!
