Mango fruit leather has turned out to be one of my kids’ favorites. The sugar is totally optional, but it makes it much sweeter and cuts the tartness.
Fruit Leather can be made from nearly any ripe fruit, peaches, apples, pears, and mangoes are good choices. It is a delicious way to preserve your harvest.
Ingredients for Mango Fruit Leather
2 pounds of fully ripe mangoes (about 3)
Juice of 1 lemon
3 tablespoons of sugar (or more to taste)

Instructions for Mango Fruit Leather
Wash and coarsely chop your fruit. Here is the simplest way I have found to cut up a mango.



Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or use a sheet lined dehydrator tray. Pour the puree mixture onto the baking sheet or dehydrator tray in ¼ cup portions. Spread puree to 1/4 inch thick.
Place baking sheet in an oven or place in dehydrator at 135 degrees for 7-10 hours or until dry, but still pliable. (Times vary depending on the type of fruit and sugar content).
Allow your mango fruit leather to cool, peel off the parchment paper or dehydrator liner. Place waxed paper between each piece and store in an airtight container.
Tip: If your fruit leather is brittle, try adding more sugar next time you make it.
