A lot of people use food dehydrators. You can even get a spool holder that feeds the filament to your printer and dries it at the same time.

Yeah, my oven is electric. Internet says 65C, which is conveniently as low as my oven goes

Microwave will not work. You can use your printer’s heated bed to dry it. Look up how to do it online, but basically you lay it on the bed, put a box over it to enclose it, turn the bed to 55°, and let it dry like that for 10 hours. That’s for PLA though, so you may have to go hotter for PETG.
