How to Make Apple Banana Fruit Leather
- Preheat your dehydrator to 125 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Wash and peel 2 large apples and 3 ripe bananas.
- Roughly chop the apples and bananas into chunks.
- Place the chopped fruit into a blender.
- Blend until completely smooth and pureed. Add 1-2 tablespoons of water if needed to achieve a smooth consistency.
- Line your dehydrator trays with non-stick sheets or parchment paper.
- Spread the puree evenly onto the prepared trays, ensuring a thin and consistent layer (about 1/8 inch thick).
- Dehydrate for 7 1/2 hours, or until the fruit leather is completely dry and leathery to the touch. Check for doneness after 7 hours.
- Once completely dry, carefully peel the fruit leather from the sheets.
- Cut into desired shapes and sizes. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
