Ingredients
- frozen blueberries – 2 cups
- water – 1/2 cup, divided
- unflavored gelatin – 3 packets
- pure maple syrup – 2 tablespoons
Instructions
- Place the frozen blueberries in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 1-2 minutes, or until plumped and slightly warm. Pour the blueberries into a blender and blend on highest setting for 1-2 minutes, or until a super-smooth puree forms. Use the back of a spoon the press the puree through a fine-mesh sieve. It may take a little doing, but you should be left with 1/2 cup blueberry juice in the bowl and 2 tablespoons or so of blueberry pulp in the sieve. Mix 1/4 cup of the water with the blueberry juice. Pour the blueberry juice into a small saucepan and heat until boiling. Meanwhile, stir the gelatin into the remaining 1/4 cup water and let sit 1 minute. Remove the blueberry juice from the heat and stir in the dissolved gelatin and the maple syrup. Pour into a glass loaf pan or molds of choice and chill 1-2 hours. Cut into desired shapes

Great site! How many spoons of gelatin are needed? I buy my gelatin in a jar but I really want to try your recipe. Thanks ♥

Hi Maria! Great question. 1 packet of gelatin equals 2 1/2 tsp, so 3 packets equals 7 1/2 tsp., or 2 1/2 tablespoons. Hope that helps!
