Dehydrated Marshmallows
Dehydrated marshmallows are small, crunchy, and light treats that are commonly found in cereals or used as toppings in hot drinks like hot chocolate. These bite-sized marshmallows can be made by simply removing moisture from regular marshmallows using a dehydrator or an oven at a low temperature. Once dehydrated, they become crispy on the outside but still maintain their sweet flavor, adding a fun texture to various desserts, drinks, or snack mixes.
Ingredients
- 2 cups dehydrated marshmallows
- 1/2 cup almonds or nuts of choice
- 1/2 cup pretzel sticks
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup dried cranberries
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the dehydrated marshmallows, almonds, pretzel sticks, chocolate chips, and dried cranberries.
- Gently toss the ingredients to mix evenly.
- Sprinkle with sea salt to add a savory touch to the sweetness.
- Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
Notes
- Drying Methods: You can use a dehydrator, oven, or air-drying.
- Storage: Store in an airtight container to maintain crunchiness.
- Cutting Size: For quicker dehydration, mini marshmallows or cut-up large marshmallows work best.
- Optional Flavoring: You can sprinkle flavorings like cinnamon or cocoa powder on the marshmallows before dehydrating for an added touch.
- Uses: Add to cereals, trail mixes, hot chocolate, or enjoy as a standalone snack.
