Raspberry Jelly Cups For Gut Health

screen-shot-2017-03-09-at-2-10-49-pm

This is an incredibly simple, nutritious and gut friendly daily treat for the whole family. The essential gut healthy ingredient is gelatin powder. We recommend using Great Lakes Gelatin or Sarah Wilson’s Gut Lovin Gelatin. Gelatin is simply cooked collagen, reduced to a pure protein powder (dehydrated bone broth).  It is high in protein and contains 18 amino acids, essential for cell repair and growth. The gelatin in these jellies will help heal your gut, lubricate your joints and make your skin glow. Enjoy!

 

Ingredients:

  • 500g frozen organic raspberries (use fresh when in season) – you can also use any other combination of berries!
  • 500ml filtered water
  • 1 tsp honey
  • 1/2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp gelatin powder (we like Great Lakes Gelatin or Gut Lovin Gelatin)

 

Method:

  • Bring frozen berries and water to the boil. Then reduce and simmer for 10 mins.
  • Place a fine sieve over a bowl and pour the liquid into the sieve. Press the mixture firmly with a wooden spoon to extract as much liquid as possible. (Keep the pulp to stir through your morning porridge or add to some homemade pancakes or muffins!).
  • Add gelatin powder to the liquid and whisk until dissolved.
  • Re strain through the sieve into another bowl to remove any stray lumps and seeds.
  • Divide into approx 8 ramekins and place in the fridge for 1-2 hours.

 

To Serve:

Eat this fabulous guilt-free gut friendly snack as is, or serve up for dessert with some organic vanilla bean or coconut yoghurt and fresh berries.
