This simple and natural fruit leather combines fresh strawberries with hidden beets for extra nutrients and lemon juice. With a food processor, an oven, and a lazy afternoon, it’s easy to whip up a batch of fresh-tasting fruit leathers for a fraction of the cost.
Ingredients
- 300 g Fresh Strawberry
- 4 tsp Honey
- 1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Preparation
1. Just tear the green leaves off the top and cut a part of the top off. Finely chopped strawberry. Add honey and lemon juice, mixed and pickled for about 30 minutes at room temperature. This can make a soft texture of fruit leather instead of hard one.
2. Place strawberries in food processor until blended. If desired, cooked the puree for 10 ~ 15 minutes to reduce water of the puree. Skim off any scum from puree. Pour into prepared pan and spread out into a thin, even layer.
3. I use food dehydrator 90ºC for 6 hours or until the center is set. If bake with a oven, lower the heat to about 75ºC for 6 hours, open the oven door occasionally to let the steam away.
4. Confirm the fruit leather with your fingers touch the surface, no wet feeling and not sticky is done. The edges of the fruit leathers are usually crunchy and uneven.
5. Remove from food dehydrator and carefully peel up the fruit roll-up and place the sticky, smooth side on parchment paper. Cut to size so that you have an even rectangle to work with. You can also use cookie cutter for different shapes. Store in airtight container.
