Homemade Fruit Jerky
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Preparation:
*Remove stones or pits. Seeds of berries or grapes do
not need to be removed.
*Peel or don't peel; depending upon individual preference.
*Cut different fruits into chunks and puree in blender
or processor.
*For yellow or light colored fruit, add 1-Tablespoon of
lemon or lime juice for each quart of fruit.
* Personal preference: Add 1-Tablespoon of honey per
quart if you feel sweetening is needed.
*Line sheet(s) with waxed paper.
*Pour the puree onto the sheet about 1/4 inch deep.
Distribute evenly by tilting the sheet; do not use a spatula
or knife. When the sheet is completely covered,
the right amount of puree has been applied.

Oven Drying:
Set oven at lowest setting (140 degrees F). Place the
sheet in the oven and leave the oven door cracked open
two to six inches. The fruit jerky will be dried in four to
five hours.

Storage:
After loosening the edge and peeling it back about an inch,
roll the waxed paper and the dried leather in one piece into
a loose roll. The dried fruit roll can be stored for years in the
freezer, for months in the refrigerator and many weeks at
room temperature (70 degrees or less).

Note:
Properly dried fruit leather will be sticky to the touch but
will peel easily from the waxed paper.
