Lemon Pepper Seasoning
Make one of our all-time favorite seasonings to add a burst of flavor to any dish, Lemon Pepper Seasoning just hits the spot. Made with a few pantry ingredients for any easy seasoning.
Ingredients
- 5 large lemons use 10, if they are small lemons
- 3 Tablespoons black peppercorns
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 175° F. Peel or zest the lemons. Be careful to get as little pith (the white stuff just below the skin) as possible. I found peeling to be faster and easier. Spread out the lemon peel on a parchment lined baking sheet so that it is in a single layer. Bake for 2- 2.5 hours until dry. See notes below for dehydrator instructions.
- Remove lemon peel from oven and allow to cool. After it has cooled, place in a spice grinder or blender with the peppercorns and blend until desired coarseness is achieved. Stir in the salt, garlic powder and onion.

Notes
- To make this in a dehydrator, place lemon peels in dehydrator and set to 135°F. Dehydrate for about 40 minutes or more if needed.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 2 months.
