These tasty treats are packed with flavor and can satisfy your sweet tooth without derailing your healthy eating goals. In this ultimate guide, we’ll show you how to make healthy keto gummies at home, including everything from ingredients and equipment to step-by-step instructions.
Ingredients:
– 1/4 cup unflavored gelatin
– 1/2 cup cold water
– 1/2 cup boiling water
– 3/4 cup erythritol (or other keto-friendly sweetener)
– 1/4 tsp salt
– 1/2 cup flavored water enhancer (like Mio) or fruit juice (optional)
– Silicone gummy molds
– Cooking spray
Equipment:
– Small saucepan
– Whisk
– Wooden spoon or spatula
– Measuring cups and spoons
– Small dropper or pipette (optional)
Instructions:
1. Prepare your silicone molds by spraying lightly with cooking spray. This will help the keto gummies release from the molds easily once they’re set.
2. In a small saucepan, combine the unflavored gelatin and cold water. Allow the mixture to sit for 5 minutes, or until the water has absorbed all the gelatin.
3. Add the boiling water to the saucepan and whisk well to combine the gelatin mixture and the water.
4. Add the erythritol (or other keto-friendly sweetener) and salt to the saucepan and whisk until everything is completely dissolved.
5. If you want to add some extra flavor to your keto gummies, now is the time to do it. Add in your preferred flavoring, such as a flavored water enhancer or fruit juice. Mix until well-combined.
6. Using a wooden spoon or spatula, pour the mixture into the prepared silicone molds. Fill each mold to the top, or just below if you prefer smaller keto gummies. If you prefer, you can use a small dropper or pipette to help you pour the mixture into the molds.
7. Gently tap the silicone mold on a flat surface to remove any air bubbles that may have formed. This will help ensure that your keto gummies are smooth and evenly formed.
8. Allow the keto gummies to set in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. Once they’re set, remove them from the molds and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
Conclusion:
Making healthy keto gummies at home is easier than you may think. With just a few ingredients and some basic equipment, you can create a delicious treat that’s perfect for snacking on the go or enjoying as a dessert. By following the steps outlined in this ultimate guide, you’ll be well on your way to making tasty, keto-friendly gummies that your whole family will love. Happy gummy-making!
