Healthy Homemade Gummies! 🍓

[@kevinwichlin9889]

Just to help anybody who is curious, if you change the pH with lemon/lime/citric acid/malic acid/etc you may need to use a different amount of Agar powder. Agar is very forgiving though because you can just reheat your gummies and add more to achieve the desired texture. (I learned this making acidified mandarin orange “roe” for a cocktail competition)

[@wobbegong4000]

Omg I can't believe you would eat alcohol

[@notreal1477]

Not curious,but I'm also not a dumb virtue signalling bellend, so I just buy regular gelatin. I understand no amount of veganism will stop China polluting the earth.

[@getmotivated1707]

Any idea if oil reacts badly with agar agar? Thinking coconut oil, but not sure if I'd still get the gummy texture using it.

Healthy Fruit Gummies Recipe Ingredients: 1 pound of strawberries Juice of 2 lemon 1/3 cup of honey 1 teaspoon of elderberry syrup 3/4 cups of water Agar agar** (see instructions) Instructions: 1. Clean and dry the strawberry, then cut the tops off. 2. Add the strawberries to a food processor along with the juice of 2 lemons, honey, elderberry syrup, and water. 3. Blend until super smooth and measure your mixture. 4. For every 1 cup of blended strawberry mix you have, use 1 teaspoon of agar agar. I had close to 3 cups so I used 3 teaspoons of agar agar. Add in your agar agar and mix well. 5. Using a syringe, pipe the strawberry mixture into silicone molds. Let sit for 30 minutes. Pro tip: If you let them sit for a few days, they dry leaving them with a concentrated flavor and chewier texture.

[@willow2031]

In the video you’re cooking the mixture but I don’t see that in the written recipe. Do we cook it and for how long?

[@AutumnVine101]

Cook the agar agar in the water and then add it to the cold strawberry mixture. That way you don't destroy the vit c and other vitamins that are normally destroyed by heat. If it would work.

Thank you for this recipe, I’m so excited to make them! If I have one suggestion, I’d recommend adding the elderberry without boiling it if possible. The boiling is likely to kill some of the nutrition from the elderberry syrup, it’s best to prepare it at lower temps.

Well compared to the ones you’d buy in the store it’s a lot less. You could try lowering the amount of honey or use a low sugar sweetener

Blending the fruits with the seeds can add bitterness. You can cut or crush then infuse them in the honey for a cleaner flavor. But you will also miss out on the fiber content

[@Other-h1j]

i made it and gave some to my little sister and she said it's good! so ty for this.

[@Josieemon]

These gummies probably have around as much of as commercial gummies but apparently because it’s in the form of honey it makes it healthy.

[@zawar4303]

what

[@thatfunkymonkey7667]

Honey is very healthy

[@SarahAbramova]

​@@thatfunkymonkey7667 no it isn't. Unless you mean for a sore throat

[@SarahAbramova]

​@@zawar4303 it being sweetened with honey does not make it much healthier than regular sugar.

[@zawar4303]

@@SarahAbramova it does? Honey is very high in antioxidants and has been shown to lower cholesterol.

[@queenj.8i895]

Wow! Love it! 💖

[@joyful_tanya]

I'm going to totally make these. Healthy treats like this are golden!

[@Warmaka]

What was wrong with the strawberries he started with?

[@joyful_tanya]

@@Warmaka well, if one has diverticulitis you can't have whole seeded strawberries. Therefore the gummies are safer. Plus sometimes you have a craving for a sweet treat and forever chemicals are in twizzlers. I'm choosing the healthier route. You do you bub, and I will do me.

[@Nevario1]

@@joyful_tanya IF you're going to talk about these treats, well... the seeds are still there. You'd have to run them through a strainer to have no seeds. So, doing the recipe like this or eating whole strawberries... what's the real difference? You'll still get seeds either way.

[@joyful_tanya]

@@Nevario1 yes, exactly you have to run it through a strainer. I love to cook, bake and make my own versions of things. I don't do gelatin because of where they get it. Natural sea weed is awesome. This I can consume safely. So, if you want easy and you don't have health challenges, by all means, knock your socks off. But do not tell others how they should think and feel. That is rude and unacceptable. Have a glorious day.

[@allroundlad]

​@@joyful_tanya I agree but that last line with the right context is wrong haha. Sometimes we should DEFINITELY tell people how they should think and feel if what they think and feel is just plain wrong.

[@Soph-s5b]

i just made it and it SO GOOD 😭 keep the work up man don't listen to the haters!

[@suzannevandoorn5628]

Can you use lime instead of lemon? I like the taste of lime better (more sweet instead of sour/bitter).

[@cosmicgamer1262]

I'd imagine its safe to swap your citrus

[@hiramlopez7823]

The lime is to act as a preservative so def yes. Basically just citric acid

[@raraavis7782]

Sure. Pure cranberry juice (the unsweetened kind) would also be an excellent choice. It has a very strong, tart flavor, but no bitterness at all. And it would deepen the color even more.

[@MeldinX2]

Obviously you can do whatever you like in them. xD

[@suzannevandoorn5628]

@@MeldinX2 Obviously, you can. But maybe it changes the consistency. I dunno 🤷‍♀️

[@benjaminhaines6356]

Would this work with frozen fruit? And other fruits? Bananas? Apples? I have a bunch of stuff in the freezer I need to use up, this could be a great way to use them!

[@empresssk]

Right!? I’m eyeing my freezed blueberries in the fridge right now

[@myyou7335]

don't do it with bananas. it's too starchy and less on the juicy. Pick citrus, apples, juicy berries.

[@DaveYognaut]

These look great! Ain't no way you can call em (super) healthy, but they seem great.

[@diatrilockhart2176]

Perhaps better because no fake food color

[@HendersonHinchfinch]

Actually you can call them healthy. Great benefits from strawberries, lemon, and honey, not to mention the elderberry. No processed sugars.

[@DaveYognaut]

@@HendersonHinchfinch they're definitely nutritious, for sure. processed or not, there's just too much sugar to be calling them healthy.

[@HendersonHinchfinch]

@@DaveYognaut yeah but the sugar is from the honey. It doesn’t spike your glucose in the same way as table sugar. It even has the benefit of reducing blood sugar believe it or not. I wouldn’t want to eat half a cup of honey in a day or anything, but it can 100% be included in a healthy diet.

[@eirgo_s]

I dunno, seems pretty healthy to me. No artificial flavor and honey instead of sugar.

[@Thetruthiscosmic]

Thank you, I cannot wait to make and try these!

[@meganbethoney3512]

Did you strain the berries before adding them to the pot? Your mix looks very smooth. I had mine in the food processor for about 4 minutes and still had small bits of seed and skin that kept stopping up my syringe.

[@dreadfairy6963]

If your food processor isn't the most powerful then it would probably work better in a high speed blender. Or just strain it through a sieve that isn't too fine, just to get the big bits out but keep some fiber.

[@funnymaninthesky]

Can you use gelatin instead?

[@athmaid]

Should work, after all that's what gummies were traditionally made from

[@momplaysdarksouls8273]

I use grass fed gelatin from Perfect Supplements. Way better and a lot healthier..😊

[@athmaid]

@@momplaysdarksouls8273 being grass fed has zero impact on the product itself if it's really 100% pure like they claim. They get their product from cattle raised in Brazil, so it's most likely a product of rainforest deforestation. I bet that "Green America" badge only pertains to the part of the company that's in the US. Don't fall for the marketing buzzwords

[@athmaid]

If their claims of being 100% pure (which means nothing really since it's a given, at least here in the EU) are true, then being grass fed doesn't have any impact on the product. I'd be very careful spending a premium for such brands

[@paulhiniker2489]

I’d just drink that after u blend it lol looks so good

[@ZeddisDead]

Me too yum.

[@notiddymothbirlfriend]

Oh my gods I've been looking for this short for months, thank you algorithm for finally throwing it back to me

[@DanieVargas]

OMG!! Thank you for posting this easy tasty and screw up proof recipe!!

[@voidpope]

How long is the shelf life ?

[@LifebyMikeG]

2 weeks in an air tight container. Keep in the fridge for 2 weeks max

[@Fahrenheit38]

Hmmm would this work with THC products?

[@bruceaskew2107]

I was thinking that , so follow his steps plus add thc oil 💯😎

[@JaimieBonner]

That lemon squeezed perfectly

[@patriciag6215]

Looks great, Im thinking about making these myself. It is basically homemade jam that is a little more concentrated and filled into littke forms

[@Joshstix95]

After hearing what goes into gummies while being processed and sold at supermarkets… this looks a lot better👌🏼

[@cmbaz1140]

You can also use carob gum/locust bean gum to thicken up the liquid.

[@JJones-gw9vy]

These look pretty tasty. I'm going to have to try this. Thank you!
