Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 cup green smoothie juice
- 1/2 cup raw honey
- 2 packets Knox unflavored gelatin (about 14 grams total)
Instructions
- Combine and Heat: In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of green smoothie juice and 1/2 cup of raw honey. Stir occasionally and heat the mixture over medium heat until it reaches a simmer. Be careful not to let it boil.
- Add Gelatin: Remove the saucepan from heat. Sprinkle the 2 packets of Knox unflavored gelatin evenly over the surface of the hot liquid. Whisk vigorously to dissolve the gelatin fully, ensuring there are no lumps left.
- Pour Into Molds: Pour the gelatin mixture carefully into silicone or other gummy molds, filling each mold to the top.
- Chill: Place the molds in the refrigerator and chill for 2 hours or until the gummies are firm and set.
- Store: Once firm, pop the green gummy snacks out of the molds. Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Notes
- Use silicone molds for easy removal of gummy snacks.
- Ensure the mixture is not boiling when adding gelatin to prevent clumping.
- Customize the green smoothie juice with your favorite greens and fruits for varied flavors.
- Store gummies refrigerated to maintain freshness and texture.
- Can be portioned as a healthy snack alternative for kids and adults alike.
