Notes
Oven Directions:
Place dragon fruit slices on parchment paper on a cooling rack
Place into a 170°F/76°C oven (or as low as your oven can go)
Crack the door with an oven-safe oven mitt or wooden spoon
Dry for 4-6 hours until thoroughly dry (times will vary - watch carefully as to not burn)
Condition: Place food into a large glass jar, shake once a day for a week to check for any signs of moisture buildup or sticking that isn't released by an easy shake of the jar. If you find signs, put it back into the dehydrator to dry more. This is not necessary if you plan on eating this within a few days.Storage: Store in an airtight container for up to a year in a dark, cool, dry place.
