You’ve seen the “Gelatin Diet Trick” trending on TikTok for gut health and skin elasticity. But drinking plain gelatin water is… gross. 🤢 Let’s turn that trend into a delicious snack! These Homemade Fruit Gummies are packed with collagen, have zero added sugar, and taste like real fruit.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup 100% Fruit Juice (Orange, Cherry, or Grape work best).
- 3 tbsp Grass-Fed Beef Gelatin Powder (Unflavored). Note: Do not use Collagen Peptides, they won’t set! You need Gelatin.
- 1 tbsp Honey or Maple Syrup (optional, if your juice isn’t sweet).
- Molds: Silicone gummy bear or heart molds.
Instructions:
- Bloom: Pour 1/2 cup of cold juice into a bowl. Sprinkle the gelatin powder over it. Let it sit for 5 minutes until it looks like applesauce (this is “blooming”).
- Heat: Heat the other 1/2 cup of juice in a small pot until hot (not boiling).
- Mix: Pour the hot juice into the bloomed gelatin mixture. Whisk vigorously until the gelatin is completely dissolved and no lumps remain.
- Pour: Use a dropper to fill your silicone molds.
- Set: Fridge for 20-30 minutes until firm. Pop them out and enjoy your gut-healing snack!
