Christmas Fruit Leather Yule Log.

Here’s one for the Festive Season.  I have taken a Tropical Fruit called “Sour Peach” and made a Christmas Fruit Leather with raisins, cinnamon and cloves.  Here in Belize, the days are hot and dry so it is the perfect time for sun-drying food outside.

Sour Peach imparts a tanginess to the taste of the leather which gives a “sweet and sour” taste.  It takes about 2 to 3 days for it to completely dry.  After this, it is dusted with cornstarch, cut into lengths and then rolled into Yule Logs.

These Yule Logs are very versatile and make a great garnish for desserts and puddings.  The rolls can be sliced and used as a topping:

They can also be served whole with turkey or ham as an interesting, tropical accompaniment to traditional Christmas fair.
