I made fruit leather yesterday, so, so, so good, I kid you not. And for today’s flavor, am sharing the one with pumpkin. I made quite a few, with apples and berries too, but yeah, pumpkin it is for now 🙂
Sounds weird, fruit roll-up, yet using pumpkin, when pumpkin is more to vegetable, right? Well, think of pumpkin PIE. Yep, these leathers are flavored with pumpkin pie spice 😀 My husband and my oldest really like these pumpkin leather and I packed a couple rolls to my oldest’s lunch box this morning, which he was so excited to show his friends lol
Here is the recipe, should you like to try 🙂
2 tbsp sugar
2 c frozen steamed pumpkin puree
2 tbsp water
1/8 tsp each of ginger powder, cinnamon powder, nutmeg powder
a generous pinch of freshly grind cloves
3 tbsp brown sugar
- Defrost frozen pumpkin puree on stove, over medium high heat
- Cook until moisture and water evaporated, and puree is thick
- Once puree is thick, stir in 2 tbsp water and the rest of the ingredients, cook on high for 1 minute
- Spread mixture thinly, on parchment lined rectangular pan
- Bake on preheated 170 F for 8 H . Yep, you read right, 8 H to achieve that dry but pliable leather texture, but this is depending on your oven.
- Let cool slightly, then cut into strips
- Enjoy, roll, stored in container or ziplock and yummo 😀
I will share you the recipe for the apples and berries some other time, but basically they are similar measurements and method 🙂 Thanks for looking and see you around <3
