These convenient rolls are packed with natural fruit. Buy in-season local strawberries for the best flavour. Don't worry if the parchment paper wrinkles when spreading the mixture, the fruit leather will still bake evenly.

Ingredients
Method
In food processor, process together strawberries, sugar and lemon juice until smooth. Pour into saucepan and bring to boil over medium heat, stirring constantly; boil, stirring constantly, until reduced to 1-1/4 cups, about 25 minutes.Meanwhile, grease 15- x 10-inch (38 x 25 cm) rimmed baking sheet; line with parchment paper. Spread strawberry mixture evenly over paper right to edges, without leaving any bare spots.
Bake in 200°F (100°C) oven until dry yet still tacky when tested with back of spoon (not fingers), about 2-3/4 hours. Let cool on pan on rack.
Starting at long edge, roll up with paper. Using scissors, cut into 1-inch (2.5 cm) wide strips. (Make-ahead: Store in airtight container for up to 2 weeks.)
