Dehydrated Marshmallows

I don't know if they are magic, but they sure are delicious. :)

To go with our Grape Nut post this morning, I thought I'd throw in some tasty crunchy marshmallows.  I sometimes feel guilty that my kids don't get to eat the cool fun cereal at the store.  I'll buy it a few times a year, but sometimes I worry that they get teased about the food they eat.  This can't/won't stop the teasing, but it can make them feel like their mom is a little less crazy. :)

Now, the next step will be me making homemade marshmallows (I can't believe I haven't done that yet!!!) to dehydrate - that will be something I can feel good about. :)

Dehydrated Marshmallows

What's In It:

1 bag miniature marshmallows

What To Do With It:

Spread marshmallows onto dehydrator trays.  I used 2 trays just to make sure they weren't over crowded.  

Dehydrate at 160 degrees F for 12 hours or until desired crunchiness. The temperature does not have to be exact, so if yours has a higher temp, that would work but would take less time.  Also, if your dehydrator doesn't go to 160 degrees, you could always use a lower temp, but it will take longer.

These are so fun - the kids love them and sometimes I'll throw them into a trail mix just for a surprise. :)
