Ingredients
  • 4 cups chopped fresh fruit washed and peeled if needed
  • 6 tbsp honey
  • 4 tbsp lemon juice

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 170°F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  2. Add the chopped fruit to a blender and blend until completely smooth.
  3. Add the honey and lemon juice to the blender and blend again until fully combined.
  4. Pour the fruit mixture into a medium saucepan and set over low heat.
  5. Simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring often, until slightly thickened and the spoon leaves a light trail in the mixture.
  6. Divide the warm mixture evenly between the prepared baking sheets.
  7. Use an offset spatula or the back of a spoon to spread the mixture into an even 1/8-inch thick layer, making sure the edges are not thinner than the center.
  8. Place the baking sheets in the oven and bake for 4 to 6 hours, rotating pans as needed, until the surface is dry to the touch and no longer sticky.
  9. Remove from the oven and let the sheets cool completely on the pans.
  10. Once cooled, use kitchen scissors or a sharp knife to cut the fruit leather into long strips with the parchment attached.
  11. Roll each strip up tightly and store in an airtight container at room temperature.

Notes

- Use almost any fruit you like, such as strawberries, mangoes, peaches, or mixed berries.
- Make sure the purée is very smooth for even drying and a chewy texture.
- If the center is still sticky after 4 hours, continue baking in 30-minute increments until fully dry.
- Store roll-ups at room temperature for up to 7 to 10 days, or freeze for longer storage.
