Air Fryer “Sun-Dried” Tomatoes

Air Fryer “Sun-Dried” Tomatoes

Food Wiki
During the past summer, I faced the challenge of preserving the surplus of grape tomatoes from my garden. Sun-drying seemed like the only solution, but the sun was notably absent. Thankfully, my trusty air fryer came to the rescue! I tailored this method for a small air fryer, accommodating 5 ounces (about 12 grape tomatoes) for convenient small-batch processing. You can store these in an airtight container in the freezer for rehydration or pack them in oil and keep them in the refrigerator for use in salads, soups, sauces, and more.
