Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 pint strawberries

Instructions

  • Combine half of a cup of sugar with half of a cup of water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil. Once the sugar has dissolved completely, take the pan off of the heat and allow it to cool to room temperature.
  • Wash and hull your strawberries. Slice each berry as thin as you can get it. Dip into your cooled syrup and place on a parchment lined baking pan.
  • Bake at 200 degrees for up to 3 hours. I recommend checking on your berries every hour to see their progress. You want them dry, but still red.
