Ingredients
Method
- Preheat the oven to 170°F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- Add the chopped fruit to a blender and blend until completely smooth.
- Add the honey and lemon juice to the blender and blend again until fully combined.
- Pour the fruit mixture into a medium saucepan and set over low heat.
- Simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring often, until slightly thickened and the spoon leaves a light trail in the mixture.
- Divide the warm mixture evenly between the prepared baking sheets.
- 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.
- 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.
- Remove from the oven and let the sheets cool completely on the pans.
- Once cooled, use kitchen scissors or a sharp knife to cut the fruit leather into long strips with the parchment attached.
- 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.
