@Cassie the jam is from Lemon Bird http://www.lemonbirddesign.com/ – her jams & pickles are incredible!

I LOVE fruit leather and never thought of making it myself, I can’t wait to try this recipe!

@AlsalsaD I’m sure it would work with frozen peaches! You just may not need to add the 3 tbs water if the frozen peaches are a bit watery once thawed, since it’s really only in the recipe to make the mixture easier to spread.

Do you think this would work if I thawed and used frozen peaches?

Let me know how it works in the dehydrator! I don’t have one (which is why I only gave oven instructions here) but if it works really well maybe it will push me to finally get one! It would probably be much better than running the oven all day.

What a great idea! I will definitely try this recipe, but in a food dehydrator instead of the oven. I’m already dreaming up lots of yummy fruit and jam combinations.

A super easy way to peel peaches is to drop them into boiling water for 30-45 seconds. The skin comes right off!
