# Ingredient List:

01 - 1 ½ cups fresh strawberries, hulled and halved

02 - 2-3 tablespoons honey or maple syrup

03 - 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

04 - 3 tablespoons unflavored gelatin powder

05 - ½ cup cold water

01 - Combine hulled strawberries and lemon juice in blender. Process until completely smooth, scraping down sides as needed.

02 - Transfer strawberry puree to small saucepan. Whisk in honey or maple syrup until fully incorporated.

03 - Sprinkle gelatin powder over cold water in small bowl. Let stand 3-5 minutes until mixture thickens and absorbs liquid.

04 - Heat strawberry puree over medium-low heat for 2-3 minutes until just warmed through. Do not allow to boil.

05 - Add bloomed gelatin to warm strawberry mixture. Whisk continuously for 2 minutes until gelatin completely dissolves and mixture is smooth.

06 - Pour mixture into silicone gummy molds or parchment-lined 8-inch square baking dish. Refrigerate minimum 2 hours until completely firm.

07 - Remove gummies from molds or cut into bite-sized pieces. Store in airtight container in refrigerator up to 1 week.

01 -

These taste nothing like the artificial store bought version the strawberry flavor actually pops
You control exactly what goes into them no mystery ingredients or weird aftertastes

02 -

Never let your strawberry mixture boil or the gelatin will lose its setting power and you will end up with syrup instead of gummies
Silicone molds make everything easier but if you use a baking dish let them set completely before trying to cut them

03 -

Lightly spray your silicone molds with a tiny bit of coconut oil before pouring to make popping them out effortless
Super ripe strawberries are naturally sweeter so you might need less honey than the recipe calls for
