Homemade Gummy Bears

My toddlers and I made the easiest gummy bear treats at home!

Here's how:

Ingredients:

• Beef gelatin (I like this one) *you can also replace with a plant based gelatin

• A silicone mold (we used this one)

• Fruit juice

• Honey (optional)

• Elderberry syrup (we did some with juice and some with elderberry) We used our homemade elderberry syrup - check out this blog post for the recipe.

Directions:

• Pour 1 cup of juice into a pot. Bring to a simmer over high heat.

• Add 1 1/2 TBSP of beef gelatin and whisk until full dissolved.

• Add 1-2 TBSP of honey if used and whisk. (I found 1 TBSP was plenty sweet)

• Pour into molds.

• Let set in the fridge for 1-2 hours.

• Pop out of the molds and store in the fridge.

My kids loved making these, and loved eating them even more!
