Strawberry Lemonade Healthy Homemade Fruit Snacks
These homemade fruit snacks are sweet, slightly tangy, and pack a protein punch. They are made with real fruit juice for a healthy snack the whole family can enjoy!
Equipment
- 1 Large Saucepan
- 1 Whisk
- 5-8 Silicone Gummy Molds Or glass 9x9 pan
- 1 Dropper
- 1-2 Baking Sheet
Ingredients
- 2 Cups Strawberry Lemonade Fruit Juice preferably not from concentrate
- 5 Tbsp Grass-fed gelatin
- 1/3 Cup Raw Honey
- 2 Scoops Strawberry Lemonade Collagen Ancient Nutrition brand
Instructions
- Pour the juice into your sauce pan. Don't turn the heat on yet!
- Sprinkle the gelatin evenly across the top of your juice.
- Wait 3-5 minutes, allowing the gelatin to "bloom". This will prevent a clumpy final product!
- While the gelatin is blooming, lay out your gummy molds on 1-2 baking sheets
- Turn the heat on medium-low
- Whisk continuously until the gelatin has completely dissolved and the mixture has warmed (don't let it boil!)
- Add the raw honey, and stir until it's dissolved
- Add the collagen, and stir until it's dissolved
- Turn off the heat, and pour mixture into a large glass measuring cup (I find this easier to work with than the sauce pan)
- Use the droppers to transfer the liquid into the gummy molds
- Transfer the baking sheets to the fridge
- Allow to set for 30 minutes to an hour
- Remove from the molds, and store in a glass airtight container
Notes
To store: store homemade fruit gummies in a glass airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
