Recipe Review: Homemade fruit snacks

Homemade Fruit Snacks

I had such high hopes for these.  Unfortunately 3 of 4 kids wouldn't eat more than 1.  The 1 year old was the only one who would eat them.  I made them with strawberries.  I'll try it one more time with peaches or blueberries.  I also want to try fruit leather (which wouldn't have any lemon juice or gelatin).

Homemade applesauce

How to:
- peel and core apples
- cut into slices
-toss in crockpot
- add some coconut oil
- add some cinnamon

let the crock pot do the work and enjoy the scent.  When apples are mushy, put in blender and blend to desired consistency.  Enjoy!

4 of 4 kids LOVED it!!  Bought more apples today to make more!
