You start with six very ripe pears from the reduced produce section of your grocery store.

That’s it.

Don’t you love one-ingredient recipes?

You can also do this in your oven, like Two Peas and Their Pod have done, minus the sweetener: http://www.twopeasandtheirpod.com/homemade-fruit-leather/

Or if you are in raw mode and have an Excalibur food dehydrator (a shout-out to my friend Natasha!) it is super easy to prepare.  And super yummy! 


Back-To-School Pear Roll-ups

Six ripe pears, washed, halved and cored.

Things needed: A food processor and a horizontal-flow dehydrator.

Place pears in a food processor and blend until smooth. Scoop half of the puree (about 1 1/2 cups) and place in the center of Teflex-lined dehydrator tray. Use an offset spatula and spread mixture evenly but not too thinly on the Teflex sheet. Repeat with second tray and place the trays in the center of the dehydrator.

Turn dehydrator setting to 57°C (Fruit/Fruit Rolls setting for Excalibur) and dehydrate for 6-8 hours, or until pliable and easy to peel.

Cut a sheet of parchment paper to fit the size of the whole peeled fruit roll and place the pear leather on top of the parchment. Roll up the parchment/pear together and use kitchen shears to cut rounds. Store cut-up rounds in a tightly-sealed container or zip-top bags for up to 1 week.
