Fruit Leather
Ingredients
- Tropical fruits
- Lemon or lime juice, if desired
- Honey, agave or simple syrup, if desired
Instructions
- Peel, seed and cut fully ripe fruits into chunks, then puree in a blender until smooth. If necessary, add lemon or lime juice to prevent browning. Add honey, agave syrup or simple syrup to sweeten if you want. Line trays with plastic wrap, or use fruit roll tray liners (available with some models) and spread mixture to ¼-inch thickness. Dry for about 10 hours until fruit leather is dry – a low temperature is better than high to preserve flavor. Touch gently to make sure there are no sticky areas. Remove and peel leather from trays while still warm. Cut into pieces, lay on clean plastic wrap and roll up. Let cool before double-bagging. Label and date. Store in refrigerator.
