  • Yield: Approximately 20-25 gummy snacks depending on mold size 1x
  • Diet: Low Sugar

Description

These Sour Lemon Gummy Snacks are a flavorful, low-sugar treat made with grass-fed gelatin and monkfruit sweetener. Infused with fresh lemon juice, they offer a tangy, refreshing bite that’s perfect for a guilt-free snack. Easy to make at home using simple ingredients and silicone molds, these gummies set quickly in the fridge for a chewy, satisfying texture.


Ingredients

Scale

Gelatin Mixture

  • 3 tablespoons grass-fed gelatin
  • 2 tablespoons powdered monkfruit sweetener
  • 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup water
  • Silicone gummy molds

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a small saucepan over low heat, whisk together gelatin, powdered monkfruit, fresh lemon juice, and water. Continue whisking to dissolve the gelatin thoroughly and blend all ingredients into a uniform mixture that will thicken.
  2. Heat the Mixture: Keep heating the mixture gently while whisking until it turns into a warm, pourable thick paste. Avoid boiling to maintain gelatin’s effectiveness.
  3. Pour into Molds: Transfer the warm mixture into a measuring cup or bowl with a spout for easy pouring. Immediately pour the mixture into silicone gummy molds carefully to avoid spills.
  4. Chill to Set: Place the filled molds into the refrigerator and chill for about 1 hour, or until the gummy snacks have fully solidified and have a chewy texture.
  5. Remove and Store: Pop the gummies out of the molds and enjoy. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks to keep them fresh and chilled.

Notes

  • Ensure the gelatin is fully dissolved for the best gummy texture.
  • Use fresh lemon juice for the brightest sour flavor.
  • Keep the heat low to avoid boiling, which can affect gelatin’s setting ability.
  • Store gummies refrigerated to maintain firmness and freshness.
  • You can adjust sweetness by modifying the amount of monkfruit powder to taste.
