Yeast Free Ceylon Cinnamon & Vanilla Fruit Leather

Fruit leather sounds like a nostalgic treat, but store-bought versions are often loaded with additives, preservatives, and ingredients that can be tricky to navigate when you're avoiding yeast and fermented components. This homemade version keeps things beautifully clean — just fresh fruit, honey, lemon juice, and a couple of warming spices. The combination of strawberries, blueberries, and peach creates a naturally sweet, jewel-toned base that tastes like summer concentrated into a chewy strip. Ceylon cinnamon brings a softer, more floral warmth than the common cassia variety, and vanilla powder (not extract) keeps the flavor pure without any alcohol-based ingredients. Straining the blended puree before spreading it ensures a silky, even texture that dries uniformly in the oven. The slow, low-heat drying process does all the work — no dehydrator required, just patience and a rimmed baking sheet. Once cooled and rolled in parchment, these strips keep well and make a genuinely satisfying snack you can feel good about reaching for.
