Nothing is better than a campfire and roasting marshmallows with friends and family. These sugar-free marshmallows are sweet and perfect for making smores!
Ingredients:
- 2 1/2 Tbsps. NuNaturals Unflavored Gelatin Powder
- 1 cup cold water, divided
- 12 ounces granulated sugar substitute (allulose, tagatose, erythritol…)
- 1/4 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp NuNaturals Pure Stevia Extract
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 to 3 tsp. NuNaturals Alcohol-Free Stevia (to taste)
- Nonstick spray
Instructions:
- Place NuNaturals Unflavored Gelatin Powder into the mixing bowl or bowl of a stand mixer with 1/2 cup of water. Have whisk attachment standing by.
- In a small saucepan combine the remaining 1/2 cup of water, granulated sugar substitute of your choice, NuNaturals Alcohol-Free Stevia, and salt. Cover and cook over medium-high heat for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove lid and clip a candy thermometer onto the side of the pan. Continue to cook until the mixture reaches 240 degrees F, approx. 7 to 8 minutes. Once the mixture reaches this temperature, immediately remove from the heat.
- Turn the mixture on low speed and, while running, slowly pour the sugar substitute syrup down the side of the bowl into the gelatin mixture. Once you have added all of the syrup, increase the speed to high. Continue to whip until the mixture becomes very thick and is lukewarm, approx. 12 to 15 minutes. Add the vanilla during the last minute of whipping. While the mixture is whipping prepare the pan as follows.
- Combine NuNaturals Pure Stevia Extract and cornstarch in a small bowl. Lightly spray a 13 by 9-inch metal baking pan with nonstick cooking spray. Add the mixture and move around until pan is completely coated. Return the remaining mixture to the bowl for later.
- Pour marshmallow mixture into prepared pan. Use a lightly oiled spatula to spread evenly into the pan.
- Dust the top with enough of remaining pure stevia extract and cornstarch mixture to lightly cover and reserve the rest for later.
- Allow the marshmallows to sit uncovered for at least 4 hours (up to overnight.)
- Turn the marshmallow out onto a cutting board and cut into 1-inch squares using a pizza wheel dusted with the pure stevia cornstarch mixture. Once cut, lightly dust all sides of each marshmallow with the remaining stevia/cornstarch mixture.Store in an airtight container for up to 3 weeks.
