dried fruit
Dehydrated orchard goods
Dried fruit is fruit that has had most of its moisture removed through sun-drying or dehydration, concentrating its sugars and extending its shelf life.
Raisins, prunes, apricots, and dates are common examples.
Trail mix typically contains nuts and dried fruit.
The term also applies to fruit that has gone stale: These strawberries have turned to dried fruit.
