Absolutely love this time of the year, when I get to harvest my juicy plums! This year was a bumper harvest, so I’ve covered this amazing ‘Plum & Szechuan Pepper Fruit Leather’ recipe!

Do you remember these healthier snack alternatives as a child in Uk? What have you been doing with your plums? 😜🍑🤌🏼

Video & recipe here, if anyone is interested… https://youtu.be/rCzrxtt0OyY

INGREDIENTS.
7-800g / 3.5 cups plums (pitted & diced).
6-700g/ 3 cups (4-5) apples (diced).
1-2 teaspoon Szechuan peppercorns.
100ml / 0.5 cupdate molases or maple syrup or honey.
1 lime or lemon (juiced & zest).

INSTRUCTIONS.
1. Preheat your ninja airfryer or oven to 60-70 degrees (155 F).
2. In a blender or food processor, combine the plums, apples, Szechuan peppercorns, and lemon juice. Blend until smooth.
3. Pour the fruit mixture into a dehydrator tray or sheet lined with parchment paper.
4. Dehydrate the fruit leather for 6-8 hours, or until it is dry and leathery.
5. Once the fruit leather is dry, cut it into strips or shapes and enjoy!

TIPS
You can use any fruit you like in this recipe. Some other good options include berries, peaches, apricots and pears.
If you don't have a dehydrator, you can also make fruit leather in the oven.
Be sure to let the fruit leather cool completely before cutting it into strips or shapes. This will help it hold its shape.
