time to use the dehydrator!

i made persimmon fruit leathers. i added a bit of pumpkin pie spice and they turned out really good. i cooked down about 10 persimmons that i had cut up and put in a pan with lemon juice from half a lemon. it took a while to cook down, 40 minutes? then i added 1/2 cup sugar and 1/4 teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice. then i blended the mixture in the blender and poured some onto the non-stick dehydrator sheets. i found the best method is to pour a blob in the middle of the sheet then rotate the sheet around to evenly spread the mixture. i tried the spatula and failed.
