Tangy, tropical, and chewy in the best possible way, this fruit leather is a snack that feels indulgent but comes together with just a handful of clean, simple ingredients. Fresh mango brings natural sweetness and a gorgeous golden color, while lime juice and zest cut through with bright citrus punch — and a whisper of ginger ties it all together. For anyone navigating iodine restrictions, packaged fruit snacks and store-bought leathers can be a minefield of additives and mystery ingredients, so making your own is a genuinely smart move. Every ingredient here — fruit, honey, a squeeze of lime, a pinch of sea salt — is straightforward and low-iodine friendly, with no dairy, no seafood derivatives, and no processed fillers to second-guess. The technique is low-effort: blend, spread, and let your oven do the slow work. Once it's done, you get pliable, peel-and-roll strips that store beautifully and travel even better. It's the kind of homemade snack that makes you wonder why you ever bought the packaged version.

Preheat the oven to 170°F (77°C). If your oven's lowest setting is 200°F (93°C), set it there and prop the door open slightly with a wooden spoon. Line an 18x13-inch rimmed baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.
Combine the mango, lime juice, honey, ground ginger, salt, and lime zest (if using) in a blender or food processor. Blend on high until completely smooth, about 1 minute, scraping down the sides once.
