Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Fresh strawberries
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 2 cups Water
- 2 tablespoons Unflavored gelatin
Instructions
Wash the strawberries thoroughly under cold water to remove any residue. Hull and halve them.
In a blender, combine the strawberries, honey, and lemon juice. Blend until smooth, ensuring no large chunks of strawberries remain. You should have a puree.
In a small saucepan, add 2 cups of water and sprinkle the gelatin over the surface. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to allow the gelatin to bloom.
Place the saucepan over medium-low heat and gently warm the gelatin mixture, stirring continuously until the gelatin is fully dissolved. This should take about 2-3 minutes. Be careful not to bring the mixture to a boil.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and pour the strawberry puree into the gelatin mixture. Stir well, ensuring the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Pour the jello mixture into a large glass or ceramic dish, or divide it evenly into individual serving cups.
Refrigerate the jello for at least 4 hours, or until it is firm to the touch.
Once set, serve the Paleo Homemade Strawberry Jello chilled. Enjoy your delicious, healthy dessert!
