HOMEMADE MANGO FRUIT ROLL-UPS
By Hawaiian Electric Co.
- 4 cups diced ripe mango (from about 3 large mangoes)
Heat oven to 175 degrees. Line two rimmed baking sheets with parchment.
Puree mango in food processor or blender until smooth. Divide the puree evenly between the two prepared pans. Using an off-set spatula, spread puree as flat and as evenly as possible, to about 1/8-inch thick.
Bake 3 to 4 hours. The roll-ups are done when puree is dry and pliable. If the bottom is not drying, flip roll-ups over and continue baking until fully dried.
Remove roll-ups from oven. Place a piece of waxed paper on top, then peel both waxed paper and roll-ups off of parchment.
Cut mango sheet into long strips, then roll up strips.
>> Notes: Total baking time will vary depending on exact thickness of roll-ups and differing oven temperatures. The roll-ups will last up to 1 week when stored in an airtight container.
Approximate nutritional information, per serving (based on 5 1-ounce roll-ups): 90 calories, 22 g carbohydrate, 18 g sugar, no fat, cholesterol, sodium, fiber or protein.
