Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 170°F (75°C). If your oven doesn't go that low, set it to the lowest possible temperature and leave the door slightly ajar.
- In a blender or food processor, combine the strawberries, sugar, lemon juice, and blueberries. Blend until you have a smooth puree.
- Pour the fruit puree into a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens and reduces by about half. This should take around 10-15 minutes. The mixture is ready when it reaches a consistency that’s not too runny but not too thick.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Pour the thickened fruit puree onto the sheet and spread it out evenly using a spatula. Aim for a thin, uniform layer, about 1/8 inch thick.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Let the fruit mixture dry out for approximately 4-6 hours. The exact time will depend on your oven and the thickness of the puree layer. The roll-up is ready when it is no longer sticky to the touch and can easily peel off the parchment paper or silicone mat.
- Once fully dried, remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the fruit leather cool completely. Use a knife or pizza cutter to slice it into strips. Roll each strip into a tight roll-up.
- Store the roll-ups in an airtight container at room temperature. They can be enjoyed as a healthy snack on-the-go or packed into lunchboxes!
