Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups ripe strawberries (or your choice of fruit)
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon or 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Fruits: Wash and chop fruits into small pieces, removing any cores.
- Blend Until Smooth: In a blender, combine chopped fruits, honey (or maple syrup), and lemon juice. Blend until you achieve a smooth puree.
- Cook Down the Mixture: Transfer the puree to a saucepan over medium heat and simmer for about 10-15 minutes until slightly thickened, stirring occasionally.
- Spread on Baking Sheets: Preheat the oven to its lowest setting (around 170°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and pour out the fruit mixture, spreading it evenly to about 1/8 inch thick.
- Bake Low and Slow: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 6-8 hours until the roll-up feels tacky but not wet.
- Slice and Enjoy: Once cooled, peel off the parchment paper, cut into strips or shapes, roll them up, and serve!
