Homemade Raspberry & Banana Fruit Leather (No Added Sugar)

Step-by-step method

Let’s cook

At a glance

You'll blend raspberries and banana into a smooth purée, spread it thin on a tray, and then slowly dry it in a low oven for several hours until it's chewy and no longer sticky—the key is patience and the right drying temperature. Once cooled, you can cut it into strips, roll them up, and dip the ends in melted chocolate for an extra special treat.

  2. 2/5

    Spread onto a tray

    Spread the fruit purée in a thin, even layer over baking paper. The thinner the layer, the faster and more evenly it will dry.

  3. 3/5

    Dry in the oven

    Place in an oven preheated to 80 °C and dry the fruit leather for 3 to 4 hours, until the surface is dry and no longer sticky to the touch. Alternatively, let it dry in the sun, protected from insects.

About this recipe

Homemade fruit leather that tastes like childhood, but is honestly all fruit 🍓 No added sugar – just blended raspberries and banana, slowly dried into soft, wonderfully chewy fruit strips. Raspberries bring a fresh tartness, while banana binds everything together and adds natural sweetness. If you're not keen on the seeds, simply pass the purée through a fine sieve. These make a brilliant, healthy snack for kids – perfect for a lunchbox, a day out, or just nibbling at home, since dipped in chocolate they turn into a proper sweet treat. The secret to getting them just right is drying them slowly at a low temperature until the surface is no longer sticky. Then let them cool completely so they can be neatly cut and rolled. And if you happen to have a really hot summer day, you can even let them dry slowly out in the sun ☀️
