Vegan Gummy Bears

These 4-ingredient plant-based rainbow gummies are about to become your newest addiction. Made with fruit and no artificial colors or refined sugars, these are a clean treat that I’m happy to give my kids. The combinations are endless depending on what fruits and juices you use. For extra sweetness, try adding pure maple syrup or honey. To make it plant-based, we used agar powder in place of gelatin for our gummies. Agar powder is derived from seaweed and a great source of iron, fiber, and zinc.

Utensils Used

 4-5 strawberries, washed with stems cut off

If you want tiny chunks of strawberries in your gummies, then mash your strawberries with a masher. If you just want the strawberry flavor, then blend it together with your orange juice.

2

In a small saucepan on low-medium heat, mix together your orange juice, pure maple syrup/honey, and mashed strawberries.

3

Add in agar powder and simmer for 5 minutes while whisking.

Using a spoon or dropper, fill your gummy bear molds with your mixture.

Place in refrigerator for 10 minutes or until the gummy bears have solidified. Enjoy!
