Equipment
- Food Processor
Ingredients
- 1 lemon
- 8 ounces chopped Orchard Choice or Sun-Maid California Figs , stems removed
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 1/4 cup water
Instructions
- Zest and juice the lemon. In a saucepan, stir together figs, lemon zest, lemon juice, sugar, and water. Bring to a boil. Turn heat down to simmer for 15 minutes, until most of the liquid cooks out.
- Transfer to a food processor. Puree until smooth. Preheat oven to 170F. Line a half baking sheet with parchment. Using a spatula or offset spatula, spread out the fig puree into an even layer, about 1/8-inch thick.
- Cook in the oven for 2 hours. (Top should be tacky—a little sticky and not completely dry). Cool completely.
- Cut the parchment into long thin strips of fig fruit leather, then roll it up.
