Ingredients
Units
Scale
- (2) 12-ounce bags fresh cranberries
- 3/4 cup maple syrup (use more if you wish)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 170˚F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cut the cranberries in half, add to a mixing bowl, and toss with the maple syrup. Then, spread them on the baking sheet and separate each individual cranberry as best you can. But, don’t agonize endlessly over this part of the process.
- Place the baking sheet in the oven and dry for 2-4 hours or longer depending on the oven.
- Remove from the oven and let completely cool. You won’t be able to tell if the cranberries are completely dehydrated until they’ve cooled down.
- Once the cranberries have cooled store them in a jar or airtight container in a cool, dark place.
