Instructions
Preheat the oven to 225° F.
Rinse and dry the oranges, then slice crosswise into thin rings about ¼ to ⅛ inch thick.
Prepare baking sheets with parchment paper and arrange the orange slices in a single layer. Pat them dry on both sides with a paper towel.
Cook for 4 to 4 ½ hours, until totally dry to the touch, flipping them over every 30 minutes. They will crisp up even more as they cool.
Cool completely before using to decorate wrapped gifts, string onto garlands, or to decorate cocktails or cakes. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one month.
