Equipment

Ingredients
 

  • 6 ounces (170 g) fresh cranberries
  • 1/2 cup (100 g) sugar or sugar substitute
  • 1 cup (237 ml) water

Instructions
 

  • Boil one cup of water in a pot on the stove top. Once boiling, add the cranberries and cook until they pop, about 5-7 minutes. Turn off the heat.
  • Strain the cranberries, then return them to the pot that’s still on the warm burner. Add the sugar and stir until the sugar dissolves.
  • Put the cranberries in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Press the air fryer’s dehydrate button. It will take about 6-7 hours to dry the cranberries, depending on the temperature of your air fryer. Mine takes 6:30 on 135° F.
  • Remove the cranberries once they’re dry and lay them out on parchment paper to cool completely before using or storing.

All air fryers have different wattage and may cook at different rates. You may need to adjust the time or temp for the best results.
