- Heat berry puree, sweetener, and vanilla in a saucepan over medium heat until bubbly. Remove from heat and slowly stir in gelatin until no clumps are visible.
- Pour into a 9x13 pan lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for at least one hour.
- Once snacks have set, remove from pan and cut into pieces.
Notes
For a vegetarian version, use agar powder in place of gelatin.
We used a mini cookie cutter! You could also look for "jelly cutters" as they are similar. Happy blending!
You can make it with other fruits but you’ll want to stay away from things like fresh pineapple, mango, kiwi, citrus, etc. because the gelatin won’t set.
You can use frozen & thawed fruit or fresh!
TYVM !:)
3 tsp of sugar in a 1/4 cup serving is too high for a kid snack with no real food value.
