Ingredients
- Strawberries
Equipment
- dehydrator
- spice grinder
- airtight jar
Directions
- Wash the strawberries and cut off the green tops.
- Cut into 1/4″ slices.

Notes
Use in yogurt, smoothies, shakes and baking. Before grinding, slices should be crisp and snap with no soft centers; condition them in a closed jar for several days (shake daily, watch for condensation). Fruit powder is hygroscopic and clumps quickly; store airtight, ideally with a desiccant.
