Don’t Toss Those Lemon Peels… Make Lemon Powder Instead

Using a Food Dehydrator:

  1. Set your dehydrator to 95-105°F
  2. Place loaded trays in the dehydrator
  3. Check progress after 12 hours
  4. Continue drying until peels are completely brittle (typically 24-48 hours)

Using an Oven:

  1. Set oven to its lowest temperature setting
  2. Prop the oven door open slightly with a wooden spoon
  3. Place the baking sheet on the middle rack
  4. Check every 2-3 hours
  5. Total drying time varies but usually takes 6-12 hours

Testing for Doneness: Peels should snap cleanly when bent, with no flexibility. If there’s any bend or give, continue drying.
