I have still yet to 100% master this recipe, but every time I make it, it’s so damn good I keep trying.

The good news? It’s 2 ingredients: Mangos and Strawberries so it can’t taste bad.

The bad news? It’s nearly impossible to spread the mixture evenly in the pan to cook evenly throughout. Any tips you find along the way when you try at home please leave in the comments!

The edges for me are always perfection and awesome and the insides are still a soup, so I try to peel off the edges and continue cooking but it never works 🙂

Ingredients:

• 2 ripe mangoes, peeled and chopped
• 1 cup strawberries (stems removed)

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 175F. That’s right and not a typo. Low temps
2. Line a cookie sheet with some parchment paper. (make sure the paper is cut perfectly into the cookie sheet so it doesn’t overlap onto the mixture – that will prevent it from cooking evenly)
3. Place all ingredients into food processor until mixture is fully pureed.
4. Pour onto cookie sheet and spread mixture evenly out with spatula (good luck)
5. Place in the oven and bake for 3-4 hours until the fruit leathers are dry to the touch and not sticky (again watch this – my outsides are always done at 3 hours but my insides need another hour)
6. Remove from oven and allow to cool down
7. Once cooled – if you aren’t consumed by the unrelenting desire to eat it all instantly, transfer onto a cutting board and cut into strips (keep it on the paper)
8. You can use extra parchment paper to roll these up so they don’t stick together

Voila! homemade, non high fructose corn syrup fruit leather!
