Ingredients

Servings

Applesauce

300 G
Orange

2 pcs
Orange zest

1 tsp
Honey

1 tsp

Step 1

Take the oranges. Wash and peel them. Squeeze the juice. Then strain the resulting juice through a sieve. This removes all the pulp, and the resulting pastila is bitter-free.

Step 2

Combine all ingredients together, mixing thoroughly.

Step 3

Pour the resulting mixture onto a dehydrator sheet and smooth it out.

Step 4

Place the marshmallow in a dehydrator and leave it there to dry for 14 hours at a temperature of 45 degrees.

Step 5

We take the pastila out of the dehydrator.

Step 6

Cut the pastila into triangles and shape them into beautiful tubes. This delicious dessert is ready!

Adviсe

If you want to make a pastila with a more pronounced orange flavor, add a little orange puree to it.
To make the dessert sweeter, I recommend using more honey. If desired, you can substitute it with sugar, molasses, maple syrup, or other sweeteners.
You can also bake pastila in the oven. This will reduce the overall preparation time. However, I still recommend baking pastila in a dehydrator or electric dehydrator, as this will preserve the maximum amount of vitamins and beneficial nutrients.
The drying time for pastila depends not only on the specific appliance but also on the thickness of the layer. Therefore, if you want to prepare this dessert faster, make the pastila layer no thicker than 5 mm.
