Fruit Gummies
INGREDIENTS:- Blend fruit in food processor or blender until smooth. Mix in sweetener and lemon juice.
- Pour into a pan lined with plastic wrap then spread out ⅛ to ¼ inch thick.
- Dehydrate in oven at 140 to 170 degrees F (60 to 75 degrees C, or as low as oven will go) for 4 to 6 hours, or until middle is not longer tacky.
- Allow to cool, then remove from plastic wrap.
- With clean scissors, trim off edges then cut into 1 inch wide strips.
- Wrap with strips of parchment or tissue paper, then use tape or string to seal.
- 1/2 cup fruit juice (for best results, use 100% juice as opposed to juice drink or juice cocktails
- ½ tbsp. pure agar powder
- 1-2 tbsp honey or agave syrup optional for additional sweetness; use agave syrup if trying to keep completely vegan
DIRECTIONS:
-
In a small saucepan, add agar powder into juice and whisk until completely dissolved. Bring mixture to a simmer and whisk again. Allow mixture to simmer for about 5 minutes or until the consistency is thickened and syrup-like (but not quite as thick as honey). Whisk occasionally while mixture is simmering so that none of the mixture overcooks on the bottom or sides of the saucepan. Once mixture is done, you can add honey if needed. Some juices are not as sweet and adding the agar powder further dilutes sweetness. If using honey, stir in until dissolved.
-
Keep saucepan on stove (so that it doesn’t cool too quickly) but turn off heat. Fill gummy molds using the eyedropper tool (this came with my gummy bear molds). Pop any air bubbles. If you are using larger fruit snack molds, you can also spoon in the mixture.
-
Place into fridge until firm (about 10-15 minutes). Keep fruit snacks stored in fridge until ready to eat.
