Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 large blood oranges or navel oranges, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup coconut sugar or granulated sugar substitute
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • pinch of ground ginger
  • dash of sea salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 200°F.
  2. Wash and dry oranges, then cut into very thin slices (as thin as possible). Lay them flat on a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. In a small bowl, mix your spices and sugar.
  4. Sprinkle evenly over orange slices.
  5. Dry in the oven at 200°F. for 2 1/2 to 3 hours. If your orange slices are thick, they will take longer.
