If pre-treating, place peach slices in the lemon mixture after cutting up while you continue to prepare the fruit.
Strain peaches out of the lemon juice mixture and load onto dehydrator trays.
Dehydrate at 135 degrees for 8-12 hours or until dried. Allow to cool and then store in mason jars or plastic bags until ready to use. Best if kept in a cool dark place, such as a pantry.
