October 24, 2013 by Leanne Vogel August 25, 2017

A healthy vegetable and fruit-based smoothie, made into fruit leathers for the perfect portable snack!

Ingredients

• 6 large carrots, juiced
• 3 apples, juiced
• 1 banana
• 1 (180 grams) mango fruit
• 12 (350 grams) strawberries
• ¼ cup chia seeds
• ¼ cup protein powder, optional
• ½ cup carrot and apple pulp

 

Instructions

1. Add ingredients to the jug of your high powered blender. Blend on high, until smooth.
2. For dehydrator method: (I use this dehydrator), spread the fruit mixture on teflex sheets until they’re about ?-inch in thickness. Dehydrate for 5-6 hours at 105F.
3. For oven method: Preheat oven to 150F or the lowest temperature it will go. Line a 11×17 baking sheet with a silicon baking mat or parchment paper.
4. Pour the fruit mixture onto prepared baking sheet and spread to about a ?-inch thick. Place baking sheet in the oven and bake for 6-8 hours, until pan is set and the center is not tacky. Remove from oven and let cool to room temperature.

Notes

Juice quantity: juice yields 20 oz

Storage: Cut into squares or strips using scissors. If you want to make fruit roll-ups, roll the strips in parchment paper. Store in an air-tight container.
