Ingredients

  • 3 cups of blueberries, blackberries or strawberries.
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice

Directions

My grandkids love these type of fruit snacks but I don’t like all the food additives. These snacks are easy to make but they take a while to cook. I usually double or triple the recipe but I have lots of grandkids. They love these fruit snacks. Blueberry and strawberry jerky snacks are their favorites!
