This year, we finally got a
huge crop of Nectarines on our tree out back. They are delicious! And with
some surplus, we decided to try to make a yummy snack - fruit leathers or fruit
roll ups. I was mostly interested in an easy process since I decided to do this
on the fly (as usual). I looked up a few resources for tips and ultimately did
the following:
1. Removed pits, sliced nectarines (left skin on) - about 4 cups worth
2. Added nectarines, 1 jar of applesauce, and 2 Tbspn lemon juice to the blender and blended until smooth
3. Traced circles/cut out parchment paper to fit correctly on the humidifier trays
4. Poured fruit mixture onto trays and spread out with spatula
5. Plugged in dehydrator and waited a few hours...

And here's the final result. Yummy! We had a few trays get a little drier than I preferred, but it was a great trial run. Now, just cut and eat - or don't cut and just eat a giant fruit donut roll!
