Maple orange peel candies

 


MAPLE ORANGE PEEL CANDIES

Ingredients

Peel of 3 oranges cut into small strips (you can remove most of the white but you don't have to)

1 1/4 cups                                                         Maple syrup (divided) 

1/2 cup                                                             Water


Directions 

Put 1 cup of maple syrup, the peels and the water in a small sauce pan, bring to a boil, reduce to simmer and let cook for 45 minutes.

Poor 1/4 cup of maple syrup in a plate and transfert the peels in it, using a slotted spoon.  Mix to cover every strips.  I transfer the strips to 2 racks on a cooking sheet, using tongs.

I put them in the oven with no heat but the light on and the door open, for about 36 hours or until completely dry.

Poor any left over syrup in the warm simple syrup, then transfert to a jar and use for crêpes, pancake or my maple and orange granola.

Store the candies in an air tight container to munch on or use to flavor recipes.
