Freeze Dried Skittles

This recipe is for a medium sized Harvest Right freeze dryer running the 6.x.x firmware

Ingredients

  • 1 Family Size package of Skittles

Directions

  • Make sure to use parchment paper or silicone mats for the trays.
  • Spread the skittles evenly on the five trays. They can be bunched up a little since they will usually separate easily after freeze drying.
  • Use the Candy function of the freeze dryer with the following settings:
    Warmup time: none
    Temperature: 140 to 145 F
    Dry time: 2 hours
  • Start the freeze dryer and wait 15 minutes for the trays to warm up.
  • Insert all five trays into the freeze dryer.
  • Seal the door and close the drain valve.
  • The total time for this to run is about four hours.
  • When the process is complete, open the drain valve to release the vacuum and then remove the trays and bag the Skittles.
