Description

Air Fryer Dehydrated Watermelon -- If you're looking for a simple yet tasty snack, look no further than air fryer dehydrated watermelon.

Ingredients 

  • 1 pound watermelon, seedless
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice, optional
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, optional

Instructions

  • Begin by cutting the watermelon into thin slices. Try to make them as even as possible to ensure they dehydrate evenly.
  • If you're using lemon juice or sea salt, sprinkle them lightly over the watermelon slices now.
  • Place the watermelon slices in the air fryer basket or on the tray, ensuring they don't overlap. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to dehydrate in batches.
  • Use that if your air fryer has a dehydration setting. If not, set it to the lowest temperature — usually around 120-140 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Dehydrate the watermelon for around 4-8 hours. The actual time can depend on the thickness of your slices, the specific temperature, and the water content of your watermelon. You'll know it's done when the slices are fully dried and have a leathery texture. Check the slices occasionally to make sure they're not overheating or burning.
  • Remove the slices from the air fryer and let them cool completely. Store in an airtight container. They can be enjoyed as a sweet, chewy snack on their own or used in recipes that call for dried fruit.

Equipment

  • Air Fryer, Basket or Oven Model
