A quick and healthy snack recipe for homemade fruit roll-ups using simple ingredients and a low oven temperature for perfect texture.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups (600 grams) fresh or frozen fruit (strawberries, mangoes, peaches, or mixed berries)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1–2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 140°F (60°C) or the lowest temperature it can reach. Line your baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Wash and hull strawberries, peel mangoes or peaches, and chop into chunks. Measure out 4 cups (600 grams) total.
  3. Place the fruit chunks into your blender or food processor. Add lemon juice and optional honey/maple syrup and cinnamon. Blend until completely smooth, about 1-2 minutes. The mixture should be pourable but thick.
  4. Pour the fruit mixture onto the lined baking sheet. Use a spatula to spread it evenly into a thin layer, about 1/8 inch (3 mm) thick. Try to keep the edges straight for easier cutting later.
  5. Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 4-6 hours. Check after 4 hours by gently touching the surface—it should feel dry to the touch but still pliable, not sticky or wet. If it’s too sticky, bake a bit longer.
  6. Remove from the oven and let the fruit leather cool for at least 30 minutes at room temperature.
  7. Use scissors or a sharp knife to cut the roll-up into desired shapes or strips. You can roll them up with parchment paper for easy storage.
  8. Keep the fruit roll-ups in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks or in the fridge for longer freshness.

Notes

Use parchment paper instead of silicone mats for easier peeling. If bubbles form during baking, prick them with a fork to release air. Rotate the baking sheet halfway through baking for even drying. Use ripe fruit for best flavor and texture. Store roll-ups individually wrapped in parchment paper to prevent sticking.
