They are also low on the glycemic index so they don't jack up your blood sugar as some other fruits can.
How does dried kiwi taste?
Moving on to taste…
Sweet yet tart, making your mouth curl up a bit – so good!
My kids gobble these up like they are a super special forbidden treat all while I just secretly smile, grateful that they aren't eating Skittles like I did by the pound as a kid.
What is the texture of these dried kiwi chips?
The dried kiwi chips come out slightly chewy, unless you leave them in for a really long time. Then they might be crispy.
How to Make Dehydrated Kiwi Chips
The kiwi chips themselves are really easy to make.
The Drying Process
Basically all you have to do is either peel the kiwi – OR DON'T (see below) – and slice into thin rounds.
Then place on a baking sheet or dehydrator tray and either dehydrate at 135 F for 6-12 hours or bake at the lowest temp in the oven for about 4-6 hours.
Do I need to peel the kiwi?
Actually, no, you don't.
Some people get a bit turned off by the brown fuzz on the outside, but the skin is edible and you don't really taste it.
Lately, I haven't even bothered to peel mine, and none of us have had any issues eating it that way.
So to save even MORE time, simply just slice these guys up and throw into dehydration mode!
Storing the dried kiwi
You can just store the dehydrated kiwi chips in an airtight container at room temp for up to 6 months.
