Description
Mildly sweet, gelatin-forward gummies that provide collagen and probiotic boosts for gut health.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups low-sodium bone broth (chicken or beef) or strong herbal tea/kombucha
- 3 tbsp grass-fed gelatin (about 3 packets)
- 1–2 tbsp raw honey or maple syrup (optional)
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice (optional for brightness)
- 1 tsp grated fresh ginger or ¼ tsp ground ginger (optional)
- 1 probiotic capsule (optional, added after cooling to <95°F)
Instructions
- Pour ½ cup cold broth into a bowl, sprinkle gelatin evenly over the surface, and let bloom for 5–10 minutes.
- Heat remaining 1½ cups broth in a saucepan until steaming, then reduce heat to low — do not boil — and keep around 100–110°F.
- Add the bloomed gelatin to warm broth and whisk until fully dissolved (about 1–2 minutes). Strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove any undissolved bits or spice fibers.
- Stir in honey and lemon juice, then cool to below 95°F before adding a probiotic capsule contents (if using).
- Pour into silicone molds using a small pitcher or dropper and refrigerate for 2–3 hours until firm. Pop gummies out and store in an airtight container.
Notes
Bloom gelatin properly: sprinkling over cold liquid prevents grainy texture. Use a digital thermometer for accuracy.
