Instructions

Preheat the oven as low as it goes (usually 150°F or 200°F — anything up to 200°F is fine) with a rack in the middle. Line a baking sheet with a piece of parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and spray lightly with cooking spray (optional, but it does help). In a blender, whiz all ingredients together to form a relatively smooth puree.

Bake the puree until it is still slightly tacky to the touch but peels up fairly easily from the parchment. Depending on the fruit you use and its moisture content, this can take anywhere from 2 to 8 hours, so use your senses.
