Blue Spirulina Healing Gummies

Gummies are the perfect snack for kids and adults alike. However, most store-bought gummies contain refined sugars like glucose syrup, sugar, dextrose or artificial flavors and colors, which doesn’t make them the healthiest option.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup apple juice
  • 1/4 cup gelatin (preferably grass-fed)
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
  • 2 teaspoons blue spirulina powder

Coating

  • 1/4 cup granulated stevia or sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon powdered citric acid added to the granular coating (optional for a sour touch)

Instructions

  • Add ½ cup apple juice to a small saucepan, and set aside an additional half cup of juice.
    Stir the gelatin into the cup of juice (that is not in the saucepan). Mix well, and set aside for 10 minutes for the gelatin to ‘bloom’ and soak up the liquid. This is an important step to prevent clumps.
    Heat the juice (without the gelatin) in the saucepan over low/medium heat until the juice starts to steam.  Do not bring the juice to a boil, just warm it.
    Take off the heat and add the gelatin and juice mixture to saucepan with the warm juice. Stir until the gelatin is dissolved and no lumps remain.
    Mix in the honey.
    Once all has dissolved, remove it from the heat and pour the mixture into silicon moulds, ice trays, or a small dish or pan.
    Place in the fridge to set for 2-3 hours.
    Pop the gummies out of the moulds, or cut into squares or cubes.
    If preferred roll the gummies in the sour sugar until fully coated.
    Store uncovered at cool room temperature for up to 1 week, covered in the refrigerator (separate with layers of parchment) for up to 2 weeks, or in in the freezer (in a container between layers of parchment) for up to 3 months.
