Alternatively, to make the rolls, cut the fruit into 1-inch strips and then roll them (fruit on the outside) while still connected to the parchment paper. If you dehydrate them on Silpat, peel them away from the sheet first and place them on parchment paper/wax paper before rolling. Free from Top 8 Allergens.Homemade Fruit Roll-Ups are gluten-free, dairy-free, nut-free, soy-free, corn-free, egg-free, and can easily be made vegan-friendly. Sweetener:Use either honey, maple syrup, or agaves syrup. Do not use granulated sugar, as it will not dissolve properly in the fruit and can leave the fruit roll-ups grainy.

And, unlike store-bought versions of fruit roll-ups or fruit gummies, these homemade ones are free from dyes, chemicals, refined sugars, and more additives. Instead, it’s JUST fruit. You can’t get more natural than that!

Note that a Silpat sheet (silicone baking mat) works best as parchment paper will slightly absorb some of the moisture in the fruit and crumple up slightly, making the fruit leather uneven in places, too. Multi-fruit leather: You can blend multiple fruits together for interesting flavors (i.e., mango and strawberry or strawberry and raspberry) or puree the fruit separately and then spread it half and half on a tray, so each roll is two flavors.

For better texture, strain the seeds if desired. If using berries or other fruits with edible seeds, you can strain them through a fine mesh sieve before transferring to the baking sheet. Super easy to prepare.This recipe for fruit roll-ups only takes a few minutes of hands-on prep time and a bit of patience while the fruit roll-ups set up in the oven. You can use virtually any fruit for this homemade fruit roll ups recipe. I love using fresh berries, like strawberries or blueberries, but you could also do: Oven: Instead of using a dehydrator, this recipe uses the oven to dry out the fruit to make the fruit leather.

Made with real fruit. And not just a tiny amount of fruit. These fruit roll-ups feature a huge dose of fruit--counting towards a serving for your kiddos (or you.) First, allow the dehydrated fruit to cool completely to room temperature. Then, use scissors, a pizza cutter, or a knife to cut into strips or squares. Optional add-ins: you can add vanilla extract (or almond extract, depending on the fruit) or dry spices like cinnamon, clove, etc., for extra flavor. I highly recommend experimenting with different fruit combinations to find your favorite unique flavor mash-ups.
