Ingredients

• 2 cups cooked squash. Any type of winter squash is suitable - preferably on the sweeter side.*
• 1/2 cup coconut cream or coconut shavings.This is optional. Feel free to use squash and spices only.
• 1 tablespoon cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice blend. Use any combination you enjoy.

Instructions

1. Combine squash and spice in bowl, blender or food processor. Add coconut if desired. Blend. (I use a stick blender to simplify clean up.)
2. Spread on dehydrator trays lined with ParaFlexx sheets or parchment paper.
3. Dehydrate for 8-12 hours at 110 degrees. Watch it carefully to observe texture. The squash must be turned after approximately 6 hours to assure complete drying. I like to keep it fairly "leathery" - but you can dry it till it crumbles and use in trail mix.
