Last night I made a new flavor of gummies. I found a recipe
here and used
this brand of kombucha, bought on my field trip to
Whole Foods Market last weekend. I altered it a bit to meet my sugar-free needs.
- Note: It is important to have all ingredients ready before beginning as you'll need to work quickly once you start.
- Puree
fruit to create a puree the consistency of applesauce or a little
thinner. For me, defrosted frozen berries pureed in a blender or food
processor work perfectly. Set aside one cup of pureed fruit.
- Set aside one cup of kombucha and/or fruit juice.(Here is how to make kombucha)
- Boil ½ cup water.
- Place ½ cup cool water in a medium sized bowl or quart size mason jar.
- Add ½ cup gelatin powder and stir quickly to create a paste.
- Quickly add the ½ cup boiling water and stir again briskly.
- This should form a thick but stirable liquid.
- Add the sweetener and stir.
- Add
the kombucha/juice and pureed fruit and stir well. You can stir with a
spoon or whisk, or use an immersion blender to make it really easy.
- Very
quickly pour the mixture in to molds or a greased glass baking dish or
other greased dish and allow to cool in fridge for 2-3 hours.
- Store in fridge in an airtight container for 1-2 weeks

I lined a brownie pan with clear wrap for a mold. |
|
After the gummies set up I was able to pull them right out with the clear wrap. |
|
Then I sliced them into tiny squares. |
|
and sealed them in a quart sized, dated bag. |
