Juice the lemon and combine the juice in a bowl with an equal amount of water.
1 lemon
Core the apples. Using a mandoline (careful of your fingers!) or a sharp knife, cut rings about 2mm (about ⅛ inch) thick.
2 apples
One by one, dunk both sides of the apple slices into the lemon juice and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat. You can crowd the apple slices but do not overlap them.
Using the dehydrator setting on your oven if you have one, bake at 175°F for 2 or more hours, longer if you want the apple rings to be crispy. Flip them over after about an hour.
A good apple won't need additional flavors to make a delicious dried apple ring, but if you want to add cinnamon or other spices to your apples, dust them after dipping the apples into the lemon juice and before baking.
Keep your dehydrated apple rings in an airtight container at room temperature. If you've completely dried them to crispy, they'll keep for months. If your dried apples are still a bit sticky, you'll want to eat them over a few days.
