Fullers Sugarhouse

Maple Fruit Leather

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 Pounds Fresh Fruit, washed and deseed if necessary
  • 2 t. Lemon Juice
  • 1/3 C. Fuller’s Sugarhouse Pure Maple Sugar

Preparation

  1. Preheat oven to 200º F. Line a baking sheet pan with a silicon baking mat or parchment paper. Set aside.
  2. Add fresh fruit to a blender or food processor and puree. Add maple sugar and lemon, then pour contents into a medium saucepan and cook over medium heat. Stir occasionally until thickened.
  3. Pour pureed fruit onto lined sheet pans and spread into a thin layer with a spatula. Place into oven for 3 1/2 – 4 hours until the fruit leather is just barely tacky and lifts easily from the parchment.
  4. To store: Cut strips into 2-inch pieces and secure with a small piece of parchment and butchers’ twine. Store in an airtight bag for up to a month
