Homemade Gelatin Gummies

These homemade gummies are made with fruit in three great flavours. They make an excellent snack and have no added sugar. They are fun to eat and a great way to get your kids to consume protein and gut-healing gelatin.

If you are looking for some healthy snack options for your kids, these gummies are ideal! We have three different flavours below:

 

• Blueberry & Lemon Gummies
• Raspberry Gummies
• Mango, Lemon & Turmeric Gummies

 

Before you get started

1. We have used liquid stevia in this recipe to keep the sugar content of this recipe down, it only contains sugar from the fruit. Honey or maple syrup can also be used. Start out with 1 tablespoon and taste and add more if desired. If you don’t like the taste of the liquid when it is in the pan then you probably won’t enjoy the gummies once set, so taste and add more sweetener to suit your taste buds.

2. You need to work quickly with this recipe, so once you have dissolved all the gelatin in the pan then quickly pour into the moulds before the gelatin starts to thicken too much. It can be a bit messy, it can be easier to pour the liquid into the moulds with a teaspoon or a jug.

3. We have used frozen fruit in these gummies as we like to make them frequently and this ensures we can make them year-round when berries are not in season, fresh fruit can be used too.

4. Our raspberry gummies still contain the raspberry seeds as I don’t mind these and they give them an extra bit of texture, if you don’t like the seeds then strain the liquid through a sieve before cooking.

Healthy Gummies Ingredients

Blueberry & Lemon Gummies

• 1 cup blueberries, we used frozen.
• 1/2 cup water
• 1 Tbspn lemon juice
• 2.5 Tbspn Nutraviva Gelatin

Mango, Lemon & Turmeric Gummies

• 1 cup mango, chopped - we used frozen

• 1 Tbspn lemon juice
• 1/2 tspn turmeric

Instructions

1. If you are making all 3 flavours make each flavour separately.

2. Add all of the ingredients minus the gelatin and stevia into a high-speed blender until you have a pureed fruit liquid.

3. Pour the fruit puree into a saucepan and heat over low heat. Add the gelatin and whisk until fully combined and there are no lumps. Add stevia liquid to sweeten as you desire. Taste and add more if needed.

4. Heat the mixture until all the gelatin is dissolved, do not let boil! Once dissolved remove from the heat.

5. Pour into moulds or a glass container to set in the fridge for 2-3 hours. You can put them in the freezer if you wish to hurry this process up but I find they set better in the fridge.

6. Pop-out of the moulds or cut out of any container you used.

7. Store in an airtight box in the fridge for about 10 days.
