Ingredients

  • 2-3 oranges
  • Twine or cotton string
  • Yarn needle or a toothpick
  • Pen or a skewer

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 200°F/93°C. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Slice oranges into 1/4 - 1/2 inch thick slices. Place the slices in a single layer on prepared baking sheets.
  • Bake for 3-4 hours or until completely dry, opening the oven door occasionally to flip the slices during baking. Note that it may take longer if you have thicker orange slices.
  • The longer you dry the orange slices, the darker color they’ll get. Let the slices dry at room temperature.
  • Poke a hole in each slice with a pen. Thread the needle with twine and make a stitch through each slice. You can tie the twine to a toothpick and use it as a needle.
