Wash and dry your oranges. Slice off the ends of your oranges, then use a knife to cut ¼ inch thick slices. Lay the slices on two parchment-lined baking sheets so the orange slices are close but not touching.
1 seedless navel orange, 1 Cara Cara or blood orange
Bake and dehydrate the slices in a 200° oven until dry to the touch, about 3 to 4 hours. After the first hour, rotate your baking sheets and flip over the slices. Check the slices every 30 to 60 minutes to make sure none are starting to brown, flipping them over and rotating the sheets once or twice more until the slices are dry to the touch.

When slicing your oranges, try to keep the thickness as uniform as possible so your dehydrated orange slices dry evenly.

Seedless oranges like navel and Cara Cara oranges work best for dehydrated oranges because seeds will leave holes in the orange slices as they dry.
