Method

Preheat the oven to 200°F.


Combine 4 cups water and lemon juice in a medium bowl.


Pit fruit and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices (preferably with a mandoline for consistency).


Place slices in lemon water and let soak 10 minutes.


Meanwhile arrange a cooling rack in each of 2 large, rimmed baking sheets and spray the racks lightly with nonstick cooking spray, or line the racks with cheesecloth (to prevent sticking).


Remove fruit slices from lemon water and arrange in a single layer on the prepared racks.


Bake until slices are almost completely dried, about 3 minutes.


Let the fruit slices cool completely, uncovered overnight to finish drying. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
