Preheat your oven to 225°F.
Place the strawberries in a blender and blend until completely smooth. Taste the puree and, if needed, add honey or agave to sweeten. If your berries are super sweet, you can skip the sweetener.
Pour the puree onto a baking sheet lined with a Silpat or other silicone baking mat. Use a spoon or spatula to spread the mixture into a smooth, even layer (not too thick or too thin). This might take some experimenting to get just right!
Bake for 2–3 hours, or until the fruit leather is dry to the touch and no longer sticky. Bake time will vary depending on your oven and the thickness of the mixture. Start checking on it after the 2 hour mark every 15 minutes or so!
The fruit leather will feel firm when it first comes out of the oven. Let it sit at room temperature to soften for at least 2 hours (overnight works even better).
Once softened, peel the fruit leather off the Silpat. Place it on top of a sheet of parchment paper, then cut it into strips. Roll up each strip with the parchment paper. This helps keep them from sticking and makes them easy to grab and go.
