Freeze Dried Fruit Bars

Serving size varies *


Directions:

  1. Add your fruit of choice to the blender or food processor.  I like to add the juicier fruit first and then add the bananas.   
  2. Line tray with parchment paper 
  3. Pour fruit mixture onto trays and add dividers (I used 10 portions per tray)
  4. Pre Freeze
  5. Freeze Dry
  6. Remove dividers and store.  These stay in “bar” form and are great for snacks and also store well. 
  7. Store Appropriately (See Tips and Tricks for storage help)

I used 16 oz  of Strawberries (add whole berry for extra greens)  and 10 bananas for 1 large tray

I used 16 oz of frozen peaches and 10 bananas and a dash of water for 1 large tray

I used 16 Oz Blueberries and 13 bananas for 1 large tray

 

****Modify recipe to your taste.  You can add more or less of any of the fruits and even mix fruits together for a variety of fruit bars.   This recipe has a stronger banana taste.

 

Cycle Time:

My cycle time was 42 hours for 5 large trays.

Rehydration:

These are meant to be eaten as is snack

 

* Large Tray = 8 Cups/tray   Medium = 6 Cups/Tray   Small = 4 Cups/Tray

Cycle times & rehydration for reference only. Your results may vary.
