Estimated from the ingredients, for the finished dried product. Actual values vary with the produce you use and how far you dry it.

Ingredients

  • 3.4 kg fresh blueberries, picked over
  • 24 cups 1/2-inch (1.3 cm) cantaloupe cubes
  • 1 1/2 cups lemon juice
  • 1 1/2 cups honey (or maple syrup)
  • 1/2 cup cornflour

Tablespoons here are 15 ml. An Australian tablespoon is 20 ml — use three teaspoons instead.

Instructions

  1. In a blender, combine the ingredients and blend until smooth, with an applesauce-like consistency.
  2. Pour the puree into a small saucepan, bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium, and let simmer for 2 minutes.
  3. Let cool, then pour 1 cup of puree per leather in 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.
  4. Peel the leathers off the sheet and place them on the mesh rack of the dehydrator tray, then place back into the dehydrator for another 3 hours. Store as directed while warm .
