Fruit puree from dried fruits
Description
The recipe won't take much time. The puree is quite caloric, so it's best consumed in moderation. One tablespoon of this treat per day is already a sufficient portion of vitamins and beneficial nutrients. Moreover, you can make healthy candies for children from this puree. To do so, simply roll the mixture into small balls with your hands. Serve chilled.

Step 1
First, prepare all the ingredients. Wash the lemon thoroughly and cut it into small slices, including the peel. Shell the walnuts and warm them in a skillet for several minutes, stirring constantly. Pour boiling water over the dried fruits and let them soak for 1–2 minutes, just until they soften slightly.

Place all ingredients into a blender. Add honey and start turning the dried fruits into a puree. The consistency depends on your preference. You can blend until smooth, but I prefer to keep small pieces of various dried fruits in the puree.
