BLACKBERRY MANGO FRUIT LEATHER

I had a childhood obsession with fruit leather, it was my favorite snack ever! And when I say fruit leather I mean fruit roll ups, the content of which I don't even like to think about. So recently I made my own! Mango and blackberry goodness. They taste even better than the fruit leather of my childhood, I'm a little bit obsessed. I do have to warn, they're not difficult to make by any means but they're more time consuming than the average recipe I post on here. Mostly because they have to cook for 4-6 hours at a low heat. So this is a recipe to make on a Sunday funday when you're craving an adventure in the kitchen. There's something so satisfying about unpeeling homemade fruit leather and tasting the fruits of your labor though (hehe), I highly recommend! Hope you love. xx- Sarah {more after the jump}


MANGO BLACKBERRY FRUIT LEATHER

vegan + GF


Ingredients

2 ripe mangos

2 cups blackberries


Method

- Preheat oven to 200 degrees F.

- Peel and cut mangos into cubes.

- Combine mangos and thoroughly rinsed blackberries in a high powered blender. Blend until pureed.

- Squeeze mixture through a cheesecloth or nut milk bag (preferred) to remove seeds. This step is optional but I found them to be SO much better without the seeds, it was well worth the extra effort.

- Line an 11 x 16 inch baking sheet with wax paper.

- Use a spatula to evenly spread puree on baking sheet, giving it a gentle shake to help smooth mixture out.

- Place in oven for 4-6 hours or until the top is no longer sticky and fruit can easily be peeled from pan.

- Place a piece of wax paper over the top and firmly press into fruit leather. Cut leather into strips, roll up and tie with bakers twine!

What a great recipe. I loved fruit leathers too. But I'm so much more excited that these are made with fruit only!! The fruit combination are deliciously endless!!
