How To Make Homemade Fruit Rollups
Today’s feature tip is from EasyFunSchool with their instructions on how to make Homemade Fruit Roll Ups:
Making your own fruit roll ups is easier than you would think. “Fruit Roll-Ups” is actually a commercial name for a disappearing practice of food preservation called fruit leather. You might ask, if I can save time and energy by buying them ready made in the store why bother? The answer is that most fruit leathers that you buy in the store are more candy than anything else and have very little nutritional value. You can change that by making your own. It’s a great activity for using with a study on pioneering or nutrition, a way to avoid the junk food habit, or a simple trail snack for your nature hikes or maybe your just looking for a way to use up that over ripe fruit.
The entire process is easier than one might think, I love the idea of making your own fruit rollups with real fruit and minus all the additives and dyes.
Update: There’s also this website that details the process, complete with recipe using nectarines & pictures, How to Make Fruit Rollups.

I love making fruit leather and so do my children! One tip I’ve learned is if your puree gets too thin is to add ground flax as a thickener. It works great and is very healthy for you too!
Great tip about the flax Kansas Allen, thanks for sharing that
!
Very exellent.
I have a recipe too,
Homemade fruit roll ups
take your favorite flavor jelly and spread a thick coat over plastic wrap. Top with another piece of plastic wrap. Wait five hours and peel and enjoy!
by the way the five hours is in the fridge.
