What is "dried fruit"?

Dried fruit is a type of fruit that has had most of its water content removed through a drying process, which can be achieved through various methods, such as sun-drying, air-drying, or dehydration. Common types of dried fruit include raisins, dates, prunes, apricots, figs, and cranberries, among others. Dried fruit is often used as a snack or as an ingredient in cooking and baking, and can be added to trail mixes, granola, oatmeal, or yogurt for a nutritious and flavorful boost. Dried fruit contains many of the same nutrients as fresh fruit, such as fiber, vitamins, and minerals, but in a more concentrated form. It is a convenient and portable food item that is perfect for on-the-go snacking and can be stored for long periods of time without spoiling.
