Gut Healing Jellies
Gluten-free, Dairy-free, Refined Sugar-free
Using silicone moulds are the best option for making jellies as they are the easiest to remove.
Chocolate Gelatin Jellies
3 tbsp gelatin
1/2 cup cold water
1/2 cup Naked Paleo Beetroot + Cacao powder (can use plain cacao)
1/2 cup raw cacao
1/4 cup raw organic honey (or coconut nectar/syrup or brown rice malt syrup)
1 1/2 cups canned coconut milk, heated on stove until almost boiling
1tbsp vanilla bean extract
Method
-
Place gelatin & cold water in a blender & blend for a couple of seconds until combined.
-
Add all other ingredients except coconut milk.
-
Add hot coconut milk last & blend for 15-30 seconds until all ingredients are combined.
-
Using a spoon, pouring cup or whatever device you find easiest. Scoop chocolate mixture into silicone molds of your choice and place in refrigerator to set. *The freezer will set them faster, but if you want to eat them straight away be careful not to freeze them.
Fridge: should completely set in 30 minutes- 1 hour.
NOTE: to make a vanilla bean layer (as seen on the squares)
-
Leave the 2 cacao powders out and blend all ingredients with the coconut milk. Separate desired amount of vanilla and put to the side.
-
Add cacao powders into the blender with the rest of the vanilla mixture and blend until smooth.
-
When layering gelatin, ensure that you have allowed the first layer to set for at least 15 minutes in the fridge before pouring the second layer on top.
