Roll into fun with these yummy fruity snacks
These fruit rolls are a win for busy parents who want to provide wholesome, homemade snacks that kids actually enjoy.
Making fruit rolls is simpler than you think. This recipe can be customised to suit your preferences. Swap strawberries for mango or peaches, and try other Tea4Kidz flavours like Peach & Apricot. Recipe compliments of Joekels.
Ingredients
- 1 cup of Boiling Water
- 2 Strawberry Flavoured Tea4Kidz Teabags
- ¼ cup of Sugar
- 1 tbsp. of Lemon Juice
- 2 cups of Strawberries
Method
- Drop in the Strawberry flavoured Tea4Kidz teabags into a cup and pour in the boiling water. Let the teabags steep for 5 minutes before removing the teabag.
- Preheat the oven to 90 °C. In a medium sized pan, add in the cup of tea and sugar. Stir continuously over medium heat for 7 minutes. The mix should reduce by half and turn into a syrup like texture.
- Using a food processor, puree the strawberries. Add the strawberry puree and lemon juice to the tea syrup and let it simmer for 25 minutes until the mixture thickens.
- Spread the thickened strawberry mix evenly onto a baking tray lined with non-stick baking paper or tin foil. Be sure to spread the mix out thinly across the baking tray. Bake in the oven over a low heat for 3 – 4 hours until the mix is no longer gooey.
- Transfer it to a cooling rack and let it cool for 20 minutes. Once cooled, peel the strawberry mix off the baking tray.
- Lay the strawberry mix down on a piece of wax paper, and gently roll it up.
