Low Carb Jelly
Ingredients
- 1 cup water
- 1 tea bag strawberry/raspberry/blueberry/peach/passion fruit/apple
- 2 tsp Further Food gelatin
- 1/3 cup Natural Sweetener
- 1 tsp stevia glycerite non-bitter stevia
- 2 tsp raspberry extract or strawberry/blueberry/peach/apple/orange
- 1/8 tsp citric acid for natural preservation and sour taste
Instructions
- Boil water in a tea kettle. Place a tea bag in a cup and place 1 cup water into the cup. Let steep for a few minutes.
- Soften gelatin in 2 tablespoons cool water for a few minutes. Add the brewed tea into the softened gelatin.
- Add the natural sweeteners (adding more or less to desired sweetness).
- Add the extract and citric acid.
- Let sit on counter to cool for at least 2 hours.
- Enjoy on my "healthified" Protein Bread (I fried in coconut oil).
- NOTE: If the jelly is too thick or too thin, just reheat until it is a liquid and add water if too thick or add a touch more gelatin if it is too thin.
