Siberian crab apple fruit leather

Ingredients

  • 500 ml thick Siberian crab apple purée (see above)
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons honey
  • baking paper

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 60–70 °C. Line a baking tray with baking paper.
  2. Stir the honey into the purée. If it is runny, first cook it down, stirring, until thick.
  3. Spread the purée with a spatula in an even layer 3 to 4 mm thick over the paper; leave a 2 cm border.
  4. Dry in the oven for 6 to 8 hours with the door ajar (wedge a wooden spoon in it). The leather is ready when it is no longer sticky in the middle.
  5. Leave to cool, lift it off the tray with the paper, cut it into strips and roll them up.

Storing: In a closed jar or tin, cool and dry: a few weeks. Good as a snack or in a lunch box.
