I love adding dried orange slices to anything and everything! I think they look so pretty and elegant on the rim of a cocktail or atop a delicious cake. When I was a kid, I remember stringing them on garlands for Christmas as a kid, and I still do that to this day with my own kids! It’s such a fun tradition!
What’s in This Dried Orange Slices Recipe?
Oranges: Yep, that’s it! All you need are some oranges– any variety will do. Classic Naval oranges make for larger slices, while blood oranges lend a beautiful red hue.
Tips for Success
Check hourly to make sure the oranges are not burning. If they are starting to brown but not dried yet, reduce the temperature of the oven and keep checking until fully dry. This is a great recipe if you have a lot of oranges you need to use up before they go bad!
How to Store and Reheat
These dried orange slices, once cooled, should be kept in an airtight container at room temperature. They will be edible for up to 2 years and can be used as decorations for as long as you like!
