We are always on the lookout for delicious, nutritious ideas for snacks for our kids. Fruit roll ups are a popular snack in many homes, but they are simply laden with unhealthy ingredients like sugar, corn syrup, dyes, and preservatives. Let’s be honest – there is very little actual “fruit” in these roll ups. But there is a simple solution to this – learn how to make fruit roll-ups at home!

Making homemade fruit roll ups is far easier than it sounds. Just break out the dehydrator, whip up a quick batch of fruit puree from our fruit roll ups recipe and add some vegan or grass-fed beef gelatin, pop it in the dehydrator overnight.

Learn how to make fruit roll ups yourself and you’ll have a wonderful, healthy snack that is simple for lunches or when you’re on the go with the kids!

Ingredients

Instructions
  1. Place the fruit in a blender and blend at high speed until pureed. Thicker fruits like bananas may need ¼ cup water to reach the right consistency.
  2. Add the gelatin and blend again until thoroughly mixed.
  3. Lay non-stick dehydrator sheets over the tray grates and pour fruit puree on top.
  4. Tilt the tray as needed to spread puree into a ¼-inch thick layer.
  5. Dehydrate at 140°F or a low setting for 6-10 hours or overnight. Time will vary based on your climate.
  6. Bend the dehydrator sheet to remove the fruit leather in one flexible sheet when finished.
  7. Roll in a clean piece of parchment paper and store in an air-tight container for up to 3 months.

Homemade fruit roll snacks don’t need to be the only thing you use your dehydrator for though. Make the most of bulk buys, seasonal specials, and garden-fresh produce by using your dehydrator to preserve fruit. These tips will help you have the healthiest foods on hand whenever you need them!
