Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup fruit puree (see notes)
  • 2 tsp agar agar powder
  • 1-4 tbsp maple syrup (or sugar)
  • 1-4 tbsp lemon juice (optional)

Method
 

  1. Blend up fruit of your choice until you get a pureed, smoothie consistency. This is your fruit puree.
  2. Measure out 1 cup of the fruit puree, then in a small pan over medium heat, combine the fruit puree with the agar agar, sweetener of choice, and lemon juice. Whisk well.
  3. Cook until it starts bubbling, then lower the heat and cook for another 2-3 minutes to activate the agar agar.
  4. Next, transfer the mixture to a gummy mold or an ice mold and place in the fridge for at least an hour. Then, remove from the molds and enjoy!
