Whip up wholesome 3-Ingredient Homemade Fruit Roll-Ups! Blend fresh fruit for vibrant, chewy snacks. A simple oven dehydration creates a healthy treat. Full instructions & nutrition details included.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups fresh or frozen fruit (e.g., strawberries, mango, peaches), hulled or pitted
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1–2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional, adjust to fruit sweetness)
  • 1–2 tablespoons water (if needed for blending)
  • 2 sheets parchment paper
  • 1 light coating non-stick cooking spray
  • 1/8 teaspoon fine sea salt

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to its lowest setting (typically 170-200°F / 75-95°C). Wash and prepare your chosen fruit. In a blender, combine the prepared fruit, lemon juice, and salt. Blend until completely smooth. If the mixture is too thick to blend, add 1-2 tablespoons of water, one at a time, until smooth.
  2. Step 2: Taste the fruit puree. If your fruit isn't sweet enough, or you prefer a sweeter roll-up, add 1-2 tablespoons of honey or maple syrup and blend again until fully incorporated.
  3. Step 3: Line a large baking sheet (approximately 13×18 inches) with one sheet of parchment paper and lightly spray the parchment with non-stick cooking spray. Pour the fruit puree onto the prepared parchment paper and use an offset spatula or the back of a spoon to spread it evenly into a thin layer, about 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick, leaving a small border around the edges.
  4. Step 4: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 3-5 hours, or until the fruit puree is no longer sticky to the touch and feels firm, leathery, and pliable. The exact cooking time will vary depending on the fruit's water content and the thickness of your layer. It should peel easily from the parchment paper without tearing.
  5. Step 5: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the fruit leather cool completely on the sheet at room temperature. Once cool, carefully peel the fruit leather from the parchment paper.
  6. Step 6: Lay the fruit leather onto a fresh piece of parchment paper. Using kitchen shears or a pizza cutter, cut the leather into strips about 1 inch wide. Roll each strip up tightly with the parchment paper still attached. Store the fruit roll-ups in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks, or in the refrigerator for longer.

Notes

  • To keep your homemade fruit roll-ups perfectly pliable and delicious, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks, or extend their freshness by refrigerating for longer enjoyment.
  • These fruit roll-ups are designed to be enjoyed as a cool or room-temperature snack; no reheating needed, as it might change their delightful leathery texture.
  • Beyond a delightful snack, consider unrolling and chopping these fruit leathers to sprinkle over yogurt, granola, or even a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a vibrant, fruity topping!
  • For the best results, remember that fruits with higher water content, like berries, will typically dry faster than denser fruits such as mango or peach, so keep a close eye on your oven to achieve that ideal leathery, non-sticky finish.
