Preparation

Step 1

cut parchment paper to fit and lay into jelly roll pans
grease parchment with butter
hull strawberries (remove the stem) and place in blender
add agave nectar to strawberries and blend until well pureed
divide the strawberry mixture evenly between the two jelly roll pans and spread thin with a rubber spatula
heat oven to 150 degrees (do not heat higher than this or you may cook the fruit as opposed to drying) If you have a convection oven, use this setting to speed up drying process.
place jelly roll pans in 170 degree oven with oven door cracked open slightly
when fruit is dry and no longer sticky to the touch (3-4 hours standard oven), remove from oven and cut fruit with parchment still attached into 2″ strips. Roll each strip around a pencil and place in airtight container (if your kids don’t gobble them up first like mine did!)

*These roll-ups can be made with any kind of berry. We also made blueberry roll-ups which were delicious!
