Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Fresh strawberries
- 2 cups Water
- 2 tablespoons Unflavored gelatin
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 10 drops Liquid stevia or other sugar-free sweetener
Instructions
Wash the fresh strawberries and remove the stems. Cut the strawberries into halves or quarters.
In a blender, combine the strawberries with 1 cup of water. Blend until smooth to make a fresh strawberry puree.
Strain the strawberry puree through a fine-mesh sieve into a medium-sized saucepan to remove the seeds, pressing down with a spoon to extract as much liquid as possible.
Add the remaining 1 cup of water to the saucepan with the strawberry puree.
Sprinkle the unflavored gelatin over the mixture and let it sit for 5 minutes to allow the gelatin to bloom. This helps it dissolve more easily.
After 5 minutes, place the saucepan over low heat and gently warm the mixture, stirring constantly, until the gelatin fully dissolves. Ensure the mixture does not boil.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the lemon juice and liquid stevia or your chosen sugar-free sweetener. Adjust the sweetness to taste, if necessary.
Pour the mixture into a jello mold or individual serving cups.
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until the jello is fully set.
Once set, serve the jello directly from the mold or invert onto a plate to serve. Enjoy your sugar-free homemade strawberry jello!
