Spiced Pumpkin Fruit Leathers

This Homemade Dried Fruit Treat is a Refreshing Use of Pumpkin Spice

These homemade spiced pumpkin fruit leathers are an ideal way to incorporate pumpkins, spices and other fruits into a healthy sweet treat. These leathers are an ideal dried fruit snack that is perfect for packing in lunches, on long trips or whenever you feel a sugar craving kicking in.

The homemade fruit leather begins by steaming sliced pumpkin and apples together and pureeing the fruit. Once the fruit has been strained and flavored with pumpkin spices it can be laid flat on parchment paper and baked or placed in a dehydrator to soak up all the moister. The end result is a sheet of thick dried fruit that can be sliced and rolled into bite-sized pieces.
