Healthy Gummy Bear Recipes

HOMEMADE GUMMY BEARS

Steps:

• Combine the fruit juice or lemonade, gelatin and sugar in a small saucepan. Cook over low heat, stirring often, until the gelatin and sugar dissolve completely, about 1 minute (make sure there is no undissolved sugar stuck to the bottom of the saucepan). If any foam forms while stirring, skim it off and discard. Transfer the mixture to a small liquid measuring cup.
• Put the gummy bear molds on a flat surface and slowly fill each cup to the top. Give each mold a small shake to ensure the mixture settles to the bottom. Refrigerate until the mixture sets, about 10 minutes. Store at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 5 days.

HEALTHY GUMMIES

Steps:

• Begin by placing the silicone molds on a baking tray. This makes it easier to transport them into the fridge. Also make sure you have a flat area in your fridge to place the gummy bears once they're poured in the molds.
• Make each flavor separately.
• Bring 1/3 cup fruit juice, 2 Tbsp of honey and 2 tsp of either stevia sweetener or granulated sugar to a boil over a medium high heat in a small saucepan or pot.
• Set aside to cool for 3 minutes. It should still be warm enough to melt the gelatin, but not hot enough to weaken the setting power of the gelatin.
• In a small container or bowl, bloom the unflavored gelatin by mixing together 1 Tbsp of gelatin with 1 Tbsp of water until the gelatin is fully dissolved. The mixture should become quick thick as you stir it.
• As soon as the gelatin and water are mixed together, add it into the slightly cooled juice mixture.
• As the gelatin sits it can firm up and become difficult to mix in. If this happens, don't worry. It should still be able to dissolve into the juice mixture, but it will take longer to melt / dissolve full. Make sure the gelatin is fully dissolved before filling the molds, or else tiny bits of gelatin can clog up the eye dropper.
• Use an eye-dropper (they come with most small silicone molds, or you can order them here) to carefully fill the silicone molds. Be sure do this as soon as the gelatin is fully mixed into the juice mixture. If you let it sit and continue to cool, the mixture will start to set.
• Carefully place the molds in the fridge for 30 minutes, then pop them out of the molds and enjoy!
• Make as many batches as you want with different flavors of juice. You can also combine two different juices! I made five using apple juice, orange juice, grapefruit juice, pomegranate juice, and black cherry juice.
• Leftover gummies can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.

HOMEMADE GUMMY BEARS RECIPE

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients except gelatin in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir with a whisk.
• Gradually whisk gelatin into the mixture, stirring constantly. (Avoid dumping gelatin into the pan all at once, which will cause big globs of gelatin to remain in the finished product.)
• Continue heating over medium-low heat until all ingredients are well combined and gelatin is completely melted. (The mixture will change from a grainy, jelly-like consistency to a more glassy, smooth consistency when gelatin is all melted.)
• Place gummy bear mold on a cookie sheet (which makes it easier to move without spilling once filled). Pour mixture into silicone mold and place in freezer for about 20-30 minutes.
• Pop homemade gummy bears out of mold and store them in an airtight container. They will keep in the refrigerator for a few weeks.

HOMEMADE HEALTHY GUMMIES

Steps:

• Remove from molds. They pop right out. If you used the loaf pan, cut your gelatin into small squares.
• Keep your homemade healthy gummies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for about 2 weeks. If you leave them outside they will last but I recommend storing them in the refrigerator.

HOW TO MAKE HEALTHY GUMMIES

Steps:

• Add fruit juice to a sauce pan, and sprinkle with gelatin. Allow to "bloom" for 5 minutes.
• Turn to medium-heat, and stir slowly with whisk until gelatin begins to dissolve.
• Add in honey until fully dissolved.
• Remove from heat, and fill gummy molds with dropper.
• Place in the freezer for 10 minutes, pop out gummies, and refill. Repeat this process until there is no remaining juice. *note: if gummy mixture hardens before next batch, simply reheat on low until melted, and continue the process.
• Store in fridge, and enjoy!

HOMEMADE HEALTHY GUMMIES

Steps:

• Place the orange juice in a small pot on high heat until it simmers.
• Add the gelatin while whisking until it's dissolved. Then, add the honey if using.
• Pour into gummy bear molds (use an eye dropper for less mess!) OR pour into a small sided container.
• Place in the fridge until set - about 1-2 hours.
• Remove from molds, or slice, and DEVOUR!

HEALTHY GUMMY BEARS

Steps:

• Lay out your molds on a baking sheet and set aside.
• In a small saucepan, combine the juice and honey. Turn the heat to low and whisk the ingredients together.
• Slowly, add the gelatin to the saucepan one tablespoon at a time, whisking the ingredients to help the gelatin to dissolve.
• Let the mixture come to a simmer and then turn off the heat. Stir in the lime juice, if you are using.
• Use a dropper to divide the mixture into the gummy bear molds. Place the molds into the refrigerator or freezer to set.
• Once the gummy bears have set, remove them from the molds and store them in a tightly-sealed container in the refrigerator for up to a week.

EASY AND HEALTHY HOMEMADE GUMMIES

Steps:

• If you're starting with whole fruit, make fruit puree by blending fruit in a blender. Then measure fruit puree into the larger measure cup/bowl first. Add honey if using.
• Measure juice into a small sauce pan and turn the heat on medium low. Add the gelatin and whisk constantly. Bring the mixture to an almost simmer - you want it to be definitely warm, but not hot, to the touch - abut 3 minutes. The liquid should be opaque or clear and the gelatin should be completely dissolved before proceeding.
• Add the juice/gelatin mixture to the puree (if using) in the bowl/cup with the spout. Whisk to combine juice/gelatin with puree and/or honey, if using.
• Place the mold on the baking sheet. Pour mixture into the molds, but do not overfill them. Alternatively, pour the mixture into the 8×8 glass pan.
• Place the entire baking sheet with the mold on top, or the 8×8 glass pan, in the freezer for 15 minutes.
• Pull the gummies out from the freezer and pop out of the molds. Store in a container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.

HEALTHY HOMEMADE STRAWBERRY GUMMY BEARS

Steps:

• **Wash your strawberries, slice the greens off and puree in a blender. Measure 2 cups of the puree and place in a medium-sized bowl.
• Stir in the lemon juice, stevia and food coloring.
• It helps to have another person help you here. Have one person spread open a nut milk bag over a large bowl while you pour the strawberry mixture inside. Tie the bag closed and squeeze the bag to get as much liquid out as you can. You should get 1¾ cup (or 334g) of the mixture after straining.
• Pour the mixture into a nonstick saucepan, sprinkle the gelatin overtop and let it sit for 5 minutes. Stir it together and smush any big clumps of gelatin, don't worry about the small ones, they'll dissolve.
• Place the pan over medium-high heat and stir occasionally, until it comes to a light boil. Stir constantly when the mixture boils harder. When you can't stir the bubbles away, keep it on the heat for ~30 seconds and then remove from the heat. Let the mixture sit for a few minutes so the foam/bubbles have a chance to go away, then carefully scoop the mixture into gummy bear molds.
• Let the molds cool on the counter for about an hour, then place them in the fridge. Refrigerate until firm. To store, place gummy bears in an airtight container and refrigerate.

HOMEMADE GUMMY BEARS

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, bring the juice and syrup to a gentle simmer. Remove the pan from heat and sprinkle the gelatin over the mixture, then whisk thoroughly until combined.
• Using a dropper, fill each cavity from your mold with the mixture, filling it to the top. Refrigerate the filled mold for 20 minutes before popping out the gummies. Enjoy immediately, or refrigerate for another time!

HOW TO MAKE WEED GUMMIES

Steps:

• Add the water, cannabis-infused coconut oil, and sunflower/soy lecithin to the pot and place on the stove on low heat.
• Stir until the oil is completely melted and the mixture has a consistent texture. Add in the flavored and unflavored gelatin, stirring constantly.
• Keep on low heat for 10-15 min until the gelatin is dissolved, making sure to constantly whisk the mixture and make sure it does not come to a boil.
• Using a fine-mesh strainer, strain mixture to catch any lumps of undissolved gelatin and impurities.
• Use a dropper to fill the gummy molds one by one, and do so quickly so that the liquid doesn't cool and begin to separate. Make sure to double back and stir the rest of the mixture frequently so it doesn't harden.
• Once the mold is full, put the gummies in the freezer for 20-25 minutes.

KETO SUGAR FREE GUMMY BEARS RECIPE

Steps:

• Combine 1/4 cup water and strawberries in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring and mashing as berries soften.
• Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer for 4-7 minutes, until berries are fall-apart soft. Mash with the back of a spoon.
• Meanwhile, pour the remaining 1/2 cup water into a small bowl. Sprinkle the gelatin powder into the bowl and whisk immediately before it sets. Set aside to bloom for at least 5 minutes.
• Place a fine mesh sieve lined with a jelly bag or nut milk bag over a bowl. When the berries are very soft, pour the berry mixture over the sieve to strain. Press with a spoon or spatula to push the juice into the bowl. You should get about 3/4 cup of juice - measure out 3/4 cup to use for the jello, and add water to reach this mount if it's not enough juice.
• Wipe down the saucepan and pour juice back into the saucepan over medium heat. Add Besti and stir to dissolve. Taste and adjust sweetener to taste if needed.
• Reduce heat to low. Stir in the bloomed gelatin and heat, stirring, for about 2 minutes, until gelatin dissolves.
• Use a dropper to fill silicone gummy bear molds with the liquid.
• Refrigerate for about 2 hours, until set. Remove the molds from the fridge one at a time to pop out the bears. (They are easier to remove when cold, so don't take all the molds from the fridge at once.) Store in the refrigerator.

HEALTHY GUMMY BEARS RECIPE

Steps:

• In a small pot, whisk together the Naturelly Jelly Juice, sweetener and agar agar powder.
• If you are making the green or red bears, add in either the green tea or beetroot powder.
• Over a medium heat, bring the mixture to a simmer while whisking constantly. Let it simmer for a minute or so, remove from the heat and pour into moulds (I used a small pipette to help with filling the moulds).
• Place in the fridge for at least 15minutes to set.
• Remove from the moulds and enjoy

HEALTHY GUMMY BEAR RECIPE

Steps:

• Measure honey, juice and gelatin into a pot. Heat on stove, stirring constantly until the gelatin is melted.
• Remove from heat and pour into your molds. Most gummy bear molds come with a special dropper to make this task easier. Of course, these snacks can be any shape - you do not have to use the bear mold.
• Prior to filling place your mold on a flat pan. Silicon molds are soft and you need to be able to transfer the filled mold to the refrigerator.
• Leave in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours. This gives the gelatin mixture time to cool and set up into a firm state. After removing from the mold, I suggest storing your honey gummy bears in the refrigerator. These are a lot of fun.

HEALTHY STRAWBERRY GUMMIES (MADE WITH REAL FRUIT)

Steps:

• Pour juice through a mesh strainer to remove seeds.
• Add juice to a saucepan over medium heat and add the gelatin. Whisk as you bring the juice to a slow boil. Once boiling, remove from heat.
• Fill gummy bear molds with juice.
• Place molds in the fridge for 20 minutes, until gummy bears are fully set.
