why did my peach fruit leather get all craggly? - eviltoast

Made some peach fruit leather. Just blended peaches. I’ve never had fruit leather break like that. What happened? How can I fix it?

    Is it on parchment paper? It looks like it stuck to the bottom while it shrank, I imagine parchment paper would have pulled with the fruit leather so it doesn’t crack, I’m not an expert though.

      It’s not on paper, just the bare plastic. (Cutting a parchment circle is a PITA. Would be easier with a rectangular sheet, I imagine.)

      That said, I’ve not had this problem with grape or apple fruit leather.

        Get a square, fold it until you end up with a triangle where one corner is the centre of the square (basically fold in half 3+ times), can cut the inner and outer edges way easier to fit circular stuff that way, what I do when I line Dutch ovens. Seriously makes it actually manageable
