Marmalade Gummies

[Gawdawg]

Gather ingredients:

One jar marmalade
Gelatin (I use Great Lakes)
Water

Only three ingredients.

I make 48 discs of gummies with this recipe. A picture of the one of the molds is shown below.

In a pot bigger than a saucepan, pour 1 3/4 cup of water.
In a bowl or 4 cup measuring cup, pour 1/34 cup of water.
In the bowl or measuring cup of water, mix 9 tablespoons of gelatin.
Mixing the gelatin in the water blooms the gelatin which is necessary when making gummies.
Once the gelatin is mixed into the water, set the pot of water on a stove top at medium/low heat. You do not want to boil the water. Keep track of the temperature of the water by sticking your finger in it. 🙂
In regards to the marmalade, in a bowl, mash the marmalade down. This will make it easier to dissolve the jam.
Once the water reaches a hot temperature, add the marmalade and stir until the marmalade is dissolved. The orange peel will not dissolve. The peel is good for you.
After the marmalade has dissolved add the bloomed gelatin. Stir the gelatin until it dissolves completely.
Keep the pot on the stove on medium heat after the gelatin is dissolved and let sit for 5-10 minutes. Ray Peat talked about the importance of cooking the gelatin. I’ve found five minutes is a good time.
Reduce the heat to low.
Now you can transfer the pot of gelatin. I use a small measuring cup. I pour the gelatin into the measuring cup and then pour into the molds.
I set the trays in the refrigerator for one hour or more.

I think I covered everything. Note, I would not eat these with meat due to citrus enhancing the absorption of iron. I also make gummies with just water, gelatin, and beet sugar. Those I will eat with meat.
