Scale
- INGREDIENTS
- 1 cup 100% fruit juice, OR
2/3 cup fruit puree and 1/3 cup 100% fruit juice - 8 tsp grass-fed gelatin
- 2 Tbsp honey (optional)
SUPPLIES - small saucepan
- silicone mold OR 8×8 glass pan
- baking sheet (if using the mold)
- small measuring cup
- larger measuring cup or bowl with a spout (for easy pouring)
- whisk
- spatula
Instructions
- If you’re starting with whole fruit, make fruit puree by blending fruit in a blender. Then measure fruit puree into the larger measure cup/bowl first. Add honey if using.
- Measure juice into a small sauce pan and turn the heat on medium low. Add the gelatin and whisk constantly. Bring the mixture to an almost simmer – you want it to be definitely warm, but not hot, to the touch – abut 3 minutes. The liquid should be opaque or clear and the gelatin should be completely dissolved before proceeding.
- Add the juice/gelatin mixture to the puree (if using) in the bowl/cup with the spout. Whisk to combine juice/gelatin with puree and/or honey, if using.
- Place the mold on the baking sheet. Pour mixture into the molds, but do not overfill them. Alternatively, pour the mixture into the 8×8 glass pan.
- Place the entire baking sheet with the mold on top, or the 8×8 glass pan, in the freezer for 15 minutes.
- Pull the gummies out from the freezer and pop out of the molds. Store in a container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
