RECIPES & INSTRUCTIONS:
Root Beer Float Gummies: THE WHOLE RECIPE IS 100 calories and 20 gram of protein!!!
7 oz Root Beer, Divided (I recommend one that is Caffeine free, organic and made with raw sugar. Gluten Free one if necessary.)
3 oz Extra Creamy oat Milk- I like Planet Oat. You can use whatever milk you like.
2 scoops Gelatin (VERY IMPORTANT- Use a grass fed, organic, pasture raised product. I like Vital Gelatin.)
- Take 4 oz of root beer at room temp or cold and mix with gelatin. Stir until dissolved. Let sit while you warm up the other liquid.
- Heat remaining 3 oz of root beer and milk until boiling.
- Add hot mixture to gelatin mixture. Stir until incorporated.
- Place mix in any pan, silicon, 8×8…I used these silicone molds.
- Store in fridge to set, about 15 minutes. Slice or cut out shapes if you poured it into an 8×8 inch pan.
Fudgsicle Gummies: The whole batch is 230 calories.
2 oz Filtered water
8 oz Oat Milk, Divided ( Planet Oat is what I used. Use whatever you like. The creamier, the better. Canned Coconut milk would be the best but I was watching the calories and fat.
2-3 TBl cocoa or cacoa powder (I like mine extra fudgy so I used 3 TBL)
2-4 TBL Maple Syrup (I used 3 TBl, taste and adjust. It will lose some sweetness as it cools)
2 scoops Gelatin (VERY IMPORTANT- Use a grass fed, organic, pasture raised product. I like Vital Gelatin.)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/8 tsp almond extract
1-2 drops of DoTerra oils )whatever added flavor you like)…Optional! IF YOU HAVE SERIOUS ILLNESS OR ARE ON SEVERAL MEDS, CONSULT DR. FIRST BEFORE INGESTING ESSENTIAL OILS)
- Take 2 oz of milk and 2 oz water at room temp or cold and mix with gelatin. Stir until dissolved. Let sit while you heat up the other ingredients.
- Heat remaining 6 oz of milk until boiling, cocoa, maple syrup and extracts (and any other flavorings) until boiling.
- Add hot mixture to gelatin mixture. Stir until incorporated.
- Store in fridge to set, about 15 minutes.
- Place mix in any pan, silicon, 8×8…I used these silicone molds.
- Store in fridge to set, about 15 minutes. Slice or cut out shapes if you poured it into an 8×8 inch pan.
Collagen Protein Bars- Makes 14 small bars. Each has 85 calories and 5 grams of protein.
4 scoops Collagen powder (I like Multi Collagen by Ancient Nutrition)
2 Scoops Vegan protein powder ( I love this one by Ancient Nutrition
3 Tbl Maple Syrup or Raw Honey (if over 2 years old and looking for extra health benefits) or any other liquid sweetener you like.
4 Tbl almond butter, unsweetened (or any other nut or seed butter you like. Can sub 1-2 Tbl of this for Food grade MCT oil or coconut oil)
2 Tbl EACH Ground Hemp seed and Flax Seed (See this Video for Hormone seed cycling if you are interested)
1/4 tsp Himalayan Sea salt
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- Mix it all together. I used a 1 tbl scoop and ungreased, plain mini muffin tins. It made 14 servings.
- Garnish with added nuts, goji, cocoa nibs, seeds, added sea salt…
- Set in fridge for 15 minutes.
1/8 tsp almond extract
NOTES for all three recipes:
- Sweetener- Use whatever you like. Consider your family and what they will eat. Always taste and adjust sweetness before setting in fridge. It (like ice cream) will lose a tiny bit of sweetness in the cooling process for the gummies.
- Have fun with this one: Change up spices, flavors, juices. Try pureed fruit and other juices (Tart cherry for instance is great for sleep, aches and pain and post workouts). Add other extracts and oils.
- Add more health benefits- CBD, Mushroom powders, Greens powders, other powdered medicinal herbs to either the gummies or the bars.
- If the gummies sets and you don’t like the flavor. Melt in a pan, adjust favors and reset. It is forgiving.
