Description
Making your own sweet-tart fruit leather is easy! Forget the store-bought kind, and try this perfectly sweet-tart snack.
Ingredients
- 1 pint Strawberries (frozen Or Fresh)
- 1 pint Rhubarb Pieces (frozen Or Fresh_
- ¼ cups 2 Tablespoons Sugar
Preparation
Preheat your oven to the lowest temperature it will go. That’s 170°F for my oven.
Place all of the ingredients in a pot and heat over medium heat. Smash fruit a bit with a potato masher. Simmer for 15 minutes.
Remove from heat and pour into a food processor. Blend until smooth.
Line two rimmed baking sheets with plastic wrap. Spread the fruit mixture evenly on the baking sheets. If your baking sheets are large, you may have to spread the fruit on only one sheet. You want the puree to be about 1/8 inch deep. Alternatively, spread the puree on the fruit leather sheets of your food dehydrator.
Dehydrate for 6 to 12 hours, until the puree is not tacky. The dehydrating time will depend on the temperature of your oven or dehydrator and how thickly you spread the puree. Once the fruit leather is done, cut it, roll it, and enjoy it!
