Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups of all natural no sugar added juice preferably organic
- 1 cup pureed fruit
- 1/4 cup gelatin from grass fed cows
- 1-2 Tbs honey preferably local
Instructions
- Reserve 1/2 cup juice in a bow, mix in gelatin (will become a bit fluffy), and set aside.
- Puree fruit (I used fresh peaches) with a splash of fruit juice until you make one cup.
- Mix in the rest of the juice and honey, and place in a saucepan.
- Heat juice and fruit mixture on low to medium heat, stirring frequently.
- After the fruit mixture has been cooking about 5 minutes and has reduced slightly, whisk it into the gelatin mixture until completely combined.
- Pour into parchment lined a glass dish or cookie sheet, or a silicon mold.
- Refrigerate at least 1-2 hours.
- Cut fruit snacks into squares or into long 2 inch strips to roll up.
- Refrigerate until ready to eat.
Notes
These last about 3-4 days in the fridge! I preferred the poured and cut into squares over the fruit roll up like fruit snacks.
