Homemade Gummy Snacks Recipe No Added Sugar

KETO SUGAR FREE GUMMY BEARS RECIPE

Steps:

• Combine 1/4 cup water and strawberries in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring and mashing as berries soften.
• Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer for 4-7 minutes, until berries are fall-apart soft. Mash with the back of a spoon.
• Meanwhile, pour the remaining 1/2 cup water into a small bowl. Sprinkle the gelatin powder into the bowl and whisk immediately before it sets. Set aside to bloom for at least 5 minutes.
• Place a fine mesh sieve lined with a jelly bag or nut milk bag over a bowl. When the berries are very soft, pour the berry mixture over the sieve to strain. Press with a spoon or spatula to push the juice into the bowl. You should get about 3/4 cup of juice - measure out 3/4 cup to use for the jello, and add water to reach this mount if it's not enough juice.
• Wipe down the saucepan and pour juice back into the saucepan over medium heat. Add Besti and stir to dissolve. Taste and adjust sweetener to taste if needed.
• Reduce heat to low. Stir in the bloomed gelatin and heat, stirring, for about 2 minutes, until gelatin dissolves.
• Use a dropper to fill silicone gummy bear molds with the liquid.
• Refrigerate for about 2 hours, until set. Remove the molds from the fridge one at a time to pop out the bears. (They are easier to remove when cold, so don't take all the molds from the fridge at once.) Store in the refrigerator.

HOMEMADE GUMMY SNACKS RECIPE (NO ADDED SUGAR)

Steps:

• Pour the juice into small saucepan. Heat gently until the juice is very warm but not boiling.
• Turn off the heat, and slowly pour the gelatin into the juice while whisking until it's incorporated. Repeat with the other tablespoon of gelatin.
• Pour the mixture into silicone molds or an 8-inch by 8-inch glass baking dish that's been very lightly greased with coconut oil. You don't have to grease the silicone molds if you decide to use those. How many gummy snacks you'll end up with depends on how big your molds are. These Lego brick molds hold 1 tablespoon of gelatin per brick while the Lego men molds hold 1 teaspoon each. I usually make a couple trays of gummy snacks and then pour the extra into a glass dish, cutting it into squares.
• Refrigerate the Homemade Gummy Snacks for at least 2 hours, then pop them out of the molds. You may want to freeze them for 15 minutes before you try to unmold.
