Ingredients
- 8 3/4 cups shredded zucchini (don't peel)
- 1.1 kg shredded green apples (don't peel) (about 6 medium)
- 4 1/4 cups apple juice
- 1 cup honey (or maple syrup)
- 1/4 cup lemon juice

Instructions
- In a blender, combine the ingredients and blend until smooth, with an applesauce-like consistency.
- Pour the puree into a small saucepan, bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium, and let simmer for 2 minutes.
- Let cool, then pour 1 cup of puree per leather into strips on a drying sheet set in a dehydrator tray. Slap the tray on the counter a couple times to level the liquid. Dehydrate at 52 °C until the leathers easily peel off the drying sheet, 11 hours.
