The dried fruit, spice and greenery combinations for your own simmer pot kit are endless. For mine, I dried some apple and orange slices in the oven. You can bake the slices at 175 F for a couple of hours and even dust them in cinnamon.

  1. Is it possible to get the editable version of the tags? I am making this recipe but instead of drying the fruit, I’m adding water to the jar. So I don’t want them to add 4 more cups? Thank you so much!!
