Ingredients:
- 1 cup water
- 3 tbsp gelatin powder
- 1/2 cup fruit juice (any flavor of your choice for natural color and flavor)
- 1-2 tbsp sweetener (stevia or erythritol, adjust to taste)
- Silicone gummy bear mold
Instructions:
- In a small pot, combine the water and fruit juice. Heat over medium until warm but not boiling.
- Slowly whisk in the gelatin powder, ensuring no lumps form. Continue stirring until the gelatin fully dissolves.
- Add the sweetener and mix until well incorporated. Taste and adjust sweetness to preference.
- Carefully pour the mixture into silicone gummy bear molds, using a dropper if necessary.
- Place the molds in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes, or until the gummy bears are firm.
- Once set, gently pop the gummy bears out of the molds and enjoy!
Helpful Tips:
- For easier removal, lightly grease the molds with a bit of coconut oil before pouring the mixture.
- If you don’t have a gummy bear mold, use any silicone mold available at home, although the shapes will differ.
- Experiment with different fruit juice flavors to create a variety of gummy bears.
Storage Instructions:
- Store gummy bears in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
- If they get too firm, allow them to sit at room temperature for a few minutes before eating.
Ingredient Substitutions:
- If you prefer a different sweetener, honey or agave can be used; however, this will add sugar.
- Vegetarians can try agar-agar powder instead of gelatin, though the texture will be different.
Pairings:
- Serve with a platter of mixed fresh fruits for a wholesome snack.
- Pair with a chilled glass of sparkling water infused with fresh berries for a refreshing drink.
