Homemade Sour Gummy Worms for Better Than Store-Bought: Halloween Edition! (made with real fruit!!)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1

    Add fruit to blender and blend until smooth.

  2. 2

    Sprinkle gelatin over lemon juice in a bowl, then stir well and let sit for 5 mins.

  3. 3

    Add fruit purée & honey to a small saucepan over low heat and stir. Heat the purée enough to melt the gelatin (~120˚F), but don’t boil.

  4. 4

    Add gelatin mixture to the fruit puree, and stir until it’s dissolved. Let cool slightly.

  5. 5

    Heat the pineapple purée to at least 176˚F for about 8 minutes to deactivate the enzyme.


Notes

The KEY to making homemade gummies is to leave them out at room temperature overnight. They shrink & dry out, which concentrates the flavor AND gives you that perfect gummy texture you’re looking for!
