Maple Syrup Marshmallows
Making marshmallows doesn't have to be complicated! These are naturally sweetened with maple syrup for a fun treat.
Equipment
- Hand mixer
Ingredients
- 1 cup cold water
- 6 tablespoon grass-fed gelatin
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- 2 cups maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Mix cool water and gelatin in a small pot. Let sit 5 minutes, then warm until it gently simmers.
- In a stand mixer or mixing bowl add salt, syrup and vanilla. Add the water/gelatin mix and turn on low then increase to high speed. Can use a hand mixer.
- Beat until soft peaks form, which takes me about 5 minutes.
- Do not over beat or they will be ugly and won't spread into the pan well!
- Lin a 9x13 pan with parchment paper. Dust the paper liberally with cornstarch, powdered sugar, cocoa powder, or shredded coconut.
- Carefully spread the mixture into the pan.
- Dust the top with more of the same and let rest several hours before cutting.
Notes
- I like to cut, dust with more of what I did to start, and leave spread out on a
cookie sheet to air dry a bit so they don't sweat in a closed pan. They can be left
air drying up to 2 days, and then into a container and they will last a few more
days. I don't actually know how long they last because we eat them too fast! - These are decadent in coffee!!
