Fruit Leather Recipe (Easy!)

This healthy fruit leather recipe is the homemade version of fruit rollups. It's so easy to make with real, fresh fruit - and no added sugar!

Ingredients

  • 1 lb Fresh fruit of your choice ((strawberries, blueberries, mangoes, etc. -- see notes))
  • 1 tsp Lemon juice

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to the lowest temperature possible (mine was 170 degrees F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    Puree the fruit in a high-speed blender until super smooth.

  3. 3

    Add the lemon juice and puree again.

  4. 4

    Spread the smooth fruit puree onto the lined baking sheet.

  5. 5

    Dehydrate fruit leather in the oven for 3-4 hours, until the center is not sticky to the touch.

  6. 6

    Remove from the oven and let the fruit leather cool completely on the baking sheet.

  7. 7

    Slide the parchment paper off the baking sheet (this is a good size for this recipe) onto a cutting board. Using a pizza cutter or knife, cut into five strips lengthwise, then cut across all of them crosswise, to make 10 pieces total.

  8. 8

    To make fruit roll ups, roll the individual strips, preferably together with the parchment paper to prevent sticking, but without is fine as well.
