Citrus Kiwi Pineapple Homemade Fruit Roll Ups {Super Easy, Healthy}

Super Simple and Healthy Citrus Kiwi Pineapple Homemade Fruit Roll Ups! These homemade fruit roll ups are an awesome snack for kids, adults, and active folk who need real food fuel! Homemade fruit rolls ups you can make in the dehydrator or oven. Real fruit based and no additives! PERFECTO!

Happy First Day of April! Remember how I promised more ways to use a dehydrator? Well, I have an easy peasy homemade fruit roll up recipe that you can add to that list –> NO JOKE! Haha, see what I did there? Once that list has a few more items to it I’ll post one MASSIVE dehydrator round up because obviously I love my dehydrator and it has saved me a TON of money. How does that sound?

I’m beginning to feel like Friday’s are my DIY homemade recipe days. Last week was homemade marshmallows, this week is Kiwi Pineapple homemade Fruit Rolls up, and next week will be homemade no bake snack bites (aka healthy bites). Ya’ll, I’m on a roll and I feel so “martha-esque.”

But the truth is I like making things from scratch, just as long as they are simple. And boy are these homemade fruit rolls ups simple. All you need is a blender and a dehydrator or your oven.

The only problem is that my husband eats them way too fast. He is a fruit roll up aholic. Actually he’s a homemade dried fruit snack aholic. Like most kids are, except he’s 33 going on 10. I joking.. kinda.

Okay so about these Kiwi Pineapple homemade Fruit Rolls up. They are PERFECT for YOU! What I mean by that is that they are ALL fruit based and loaded with Vitamin C.

Which makes these homemade Fruit Roll ups PERFECT for…

1. Portable snacks/workout fuel
2. Kid friendly lunch snacks
3. Satisfying sugar cravings (in a whole food based way)
4. Saving money and buying less packaged foods.
5. Using up extra ripe or ready to fruit and/or veggies
6. Boosting your Vitamin C and Fiber intake (which we all need)

See, PERFECT. My only regret is not making these more often, especially when my husband was Ironman training. These homemade fruit roll ups are perfect (there I go again using the word perfect) fuel for long runs, bike rides, etc. because they don’t melt and they are easy to digest. No artificial anything, phew!! Just look at that roll ya’ll.

I know what you are thinking. “But um.. Lindsay. I don’t have a dehydrator.” Yes, I know. NOt everyone does. But they are so worth it! I’ll get into that in another post. For now, let’s talk about how you can make these homemade fruit rolls up without a dehydrator. Yep, you can! ALthough it takes little more effort because you will need to use your oven at the lowest setting for about 6-8 hrs. Our Best Bites has a great tutorial about how to make homemade fruit roll ups in the oven, so check that out as well!

Well guys and gals! I hope I didn’t FOOL you into thinking this was hard, because it’s not! Promise. Go blend up some fresh veggies and fruit and let’s make some homemade fruit roll ups.

What fruit would you put in your homemade fruit roll ups?

Shock factor -> You can add tequila to blended strawberries and make strawberry margarita homemade fruit roll ups. WHOA.. MIND BLOWING! Although I don’t recommend using boozy fruit roll ups for pre workout fuel. LOL!

P.S

The dehydrator I use is very affordable and economical! I bought it on Amazon –> HERE.
