One Ingredient Strawberry Fruit Leather


Fruit roll ups were always my favorite snack as a child, growing up. I loved unraveling them and eating them little by little. However, nowadays, I do not enjoy them so much, having looked at the nutritional info. SUGAR! Nothing, but SUGAR! 

Where was the real fruit? Absent, of course.

So, I decided to make my own recipe-a healthier version with nothing but the real fruit involved. The best part about it? It only takes one ingredient: the FRUIT! Using the natural sugar, this recipe is sure to be a tasty and fulfilling snack without the guilt. However, if you would like a sweeter fruit roll up, you can add 1/4 cup of Stevia to this recipe.
