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
Directions
Step 1
Wash the fresh strawberries and remove the stems. Cut the strawberries into halves or quarters.
Step 2
In a blender, combine the strawberries with 1 cup of water. Blend until smooth to make a fresh strawberry puree.
Step 3
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.
Step 4
Add the remaining 1 cup of water to the saucepan with the strawberry puree.
Step 5
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.
Step 6
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.
Step 7
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.
Step 8
Pour the mixture into a jello mold or individual serving cups.
Step 9
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until the jello is fully set.
Step 10
Once set, serve the jello directly from the mold or invert onto a plate to serve. Enjoy your sugar-free homemade strawberry jello!
