Dehydrated Zucchini Fruit Strips
Check out this recipe on how to prepare & dehydrate some Zucchini to make a delicious and chewy snack, like a Fruit Roll Up!
Ingredients
- Fresh Zucchini - As many as you would like to use!
- 2 (12 oz) Cans Frozen Juice Concentrate (flavor of choice) - partially thawed, this makes it easier to remove from the can
- 2 (12 oz) Cans full of Water
Instructions
- Wash, Peel and Remove Seeds from Fresh Zucchini.
- Cut prepared Zucchini into desired size & shape pieces. About 8 cups per batch, depending on size of dehydrator. 1/2" thick strips work well for Fruit Strips!
- In a Saucepan or Dutch Oven on the stovetop, add the partially thawed Juice Concentrate and Water and cook on Medium High Heat until combined and the Juice Concentrate has melted.
- Add the Zucchini Strips to the Juice Solution and Cook on a light simmer until the Zucchini is tender and translucent, about 30 min.
- Place the Tender Zucchini Strips onto the Dehydrator Trays, over a rimmed baking pan, to help drain away any excess liquid until ready to load into the dehydrator.
- Load the Zucchini Fruit Strips filled trays into your dehydrator and Dehydrate the strips for 8-12 hours at 135 Degrees F. Or until the Zucchini Fruit Strips are tacky and tender, but not moist. This will result in a nice chewy Snack Strip.
- Store the Dehydrated Zucchini Fruit Strips in an airtight container in the Refrigerator - they store nicely for a few weeks!
