Ingredients

• 2 cups Fresh fruit of choice (e.g., strawberries, mango, or mixed berries)
• 1 tablespoon Honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
• 1 teaspoon Lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 175°F (80°C) or the lowest setting if your oven doesn't go that low. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2

Wash and prepare your fruit. If necessary, peel, core, or remove seeds. Chop the fruit into small pieces for easier blending.

Step 3

In a blender or food processor, combine the fruit, honey or maple syrup (if using), and lemon juice. Blend until completely smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed.

Step 4

Pour the fruit puree onto the prepared baking sheet. Use a spatula to spread it evenly into a thin layer, about 1/8-inch thick. Make sure it is evenly spread to ensure consistent drying.

Step 5

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and let the fruit puree dry for 3-4 hours. Check periodically to avoid over-drying. The fruit roll-up is ready when it is no longer sticky to the touch but still pliable.

Step 6

Remove the tray from the oven and allow it to cool completely. Once cooled, peel the fruit sheet off the parchment paper or silicone mat.

Step 7

Use kitchen scissors or a sharp knife to cut the fruit sheet into strips. Roll each strip up with a small piece of parchment paper to prevent sticking.

Step 8

Store the fruit roll-ups in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
