Vegan Fruit Jello Cups Recipes

FRUIT JELLO CUPS

Steps:

• If using fresh fruit, clean and peel hard skinned fruits (apples, bananas, pears, oranges, etc, melons, etc) and cut into small chunks. Use your choice of anti-browning agent and sprinkle, then toss to coat well the cut fruit. Set aside.
• Boil fruit juice and sugar in a microwave safe container in the microwave until boiling. don't allow to much liquid to be lost to steam. Cover in microwave if you can. Stir well, making sure all sugar has dissolved. If using Splenda, do not add at this point.
• Meanwhile, open can of fruit and drain juices into a separate medium sized non metal bowl.
• Pour drained juices into a measuring cup, add Splenda and fill to 1 cup mark with fruit juice of your choice (remember, no real pineapple or kiwi juice.artificial flavoring is ok).
• In the non metal bowl you already used, pour boiling fruit juice mixture and sprinkle gelatin in slowly while stirring until gelatin is dissolved.
• Line up your cups and pour mixture to about half (using the cups I mentioned above). When all mixture is poured in, add 1 tiny drop to each container you want to color and mix with a spoon. The extreme colors are very bright/dark and I think the pink and green/yellow turn out the prettiest with the fruit. Don't use big drops or you wont be able to see the fruit as well. Sometimes I split one drop between two by putting one drop in one container and then pouring the mixture back and forth in the separate containers till desired color is achieved. The regular food coloring has nice Christmas colors. The kids love this part!
• After you are happy with your colors, add about 2 TB of the chunked fruit to your cups. It will sink to the bottom and raise the level of the gelatin to within 1/4" of the top.
• Cover and chill about 1 hour.
• Feel free to use different kinds of juice and fruit. Each container has about 2 servings of fruit. This makes a firm set.if you prefer a softer set, add 1/8 cup more cold fruit juice.

• In a medium saucepan, add 2 cups fruit juice, agar and sugar together. Stir well and bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer, stirring often, for 5 minutes or until both the agar and sugar have dissolved. If using Splenda, cool mixture a bit before adding. Don't allow Splenda to boil because the texture changes and will affect the finished Jello.
