Elderberry Powder Recipe
Making homemade elderberry powder involves just 5 steps:
- Using scissors, collect at least 30 large ripe elderberry heads. Remove the berries from the bitter stems and leaves. Wash thoroughly.
Dry the Berries
There are three drying methods:
Sun-dry: Spread berries in one layer on parchment paper for 7-9 days.
Dehydrator: Dry at 130°F for 4-5 hours.
Oven: Dry at 120°F for 15-30 minutes per batch.
Berries are fully dry when no moisture remains inside.
