Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pint Fresh strawberries
- 2 cups Water
- 2.5 tablespoons Powdered gelatin
- 0.5 cup Erythritol (or preferred low carb sweetener)
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
Wash the strawberries thoroughly and remove the stems and leaves.
In a blender, combine the strawberries and 1 cup of water. Blend until smooth to create a strawberry puree.
In a medium saucepan, add the remaining 1 cup of water and sprinkle the gelatin evenly over the top. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to allow the gelatin to bloom.
Place the saucepan on medium heat and stir continuously until the gelatin is completely dissolved. Do not let the mixture boil.
Reduce the heat to low and add the erythritol, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Stir well until the sweetener is completely dissolved.
Remove the saucepan from heat and gently fold in the strawberry puree, mixing thoroughly.
Pour the mixture into a mold or serving dish of choice. Allow it to cool slightly at room temperature before transferring it to the refrigerator.
Refrigerate the jello for at least 4 hours or until fully set.
Once set, serve chilled. Enjoy your refreshing and low-carb strawberry jello!
