Gut Healthy Marshmallows

Equipment

• Large mixing bowl and Electric Beaters or Stand Mixer

• Spatula

• Measuring Cups

• Large glass food storage dish or baking dish

• Parchment paper

• Saucepan

• Whisk

Ingredients

• ¼ cup of Perfect Supplement's Bovine Gelatin (use discount code bewellshel)

• ½ cup water

• tapioca starch for dusting the pan

• ½ cup water

• ¾ cup raw honey or maple syrup

• 3 tsp of vanilla extract, optional

Instructions

1. Pour a 1/2 cup water into a large bowl or your stand mixer bowl. Sprinkle a 1/4 cup of gelatin evenly over the top of the water then leave to bloom.

2. Line your storage or baking dish with parchment paper and dust with a fine layer of tapioca starch. Set aside.

3. Add 3/4 cup of honey or maple syrup and 1/2 cup of water to a saucepan, whisk to combine. Place saucepan onto a high heat and bring to a boil for 2-3 minutes.

4. If using a stand mixer, use your whisk attachment and turn it on low while slowly pouring the syrup into the bloomed gelatin. Slowly increase the speed to high.  Beat for 8-10 minutes. If adding vanilla extract, add now while still beating.

5. If you using electric beaters, slowly pour the syrup into the bloomed gelatin while beating to combine. Beat for 8-10 minutes, slowly increasing the speed. If adding vanilla extract, add now while still beating.

6. Once the mixture is white and fluffy, pour into the pre-prepared baking tin or dish straight away - it is important to work quickly here as the marshmallow will begin to set. Place the marshmallow into the fridge for 1 and a half hours to set.

7. Once the marshmallow is set, remove from the fridge and use a sharp knife, dusted in tapioca starch, to cut into cubes. Dust each cube in tapioca starch and store in an airtight container, between layers of baking paper to prevent sticking.
