Ingredients
- 1 Super Starr Papaya, seeded and cubed - about 3-4 cups
- ¼ cup honey - optional
- Juice from ½ lime - or lemon
- 2 teaspoons Tajín or any chili-lime seasoning spice blend - optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 175ºF and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- To a blender or food processor, add papaya, honey, lime juice and Tajín, and blend until smooth.
- Pour the mixture onto parchment paper, and using an off-set spatula, spread the purée even and thin; about ⅛ inch thick.
- Bake for 3-4 hours, or until they are dry enough to touch. The surface should look matte, and should feel dry and smooth, when pressed. If the fruit mixture is still wet to touch, bake until dry, checking every 30-minutes. Remove the fruit leather from the oven. Let it cool completely then use scissors to cut long strips, then roll them up.
