Directions

  1. 1Combine the gelatin with 1/4 cup water in a small bowl and let it sit to bloom while you prepare the syrup.

  3. 3Bring the mixture to a boil and heat until it reaches a high temperature (around 240 fahrenheit), being cautious as it is hot.
  4. 4Pour the bloomed gelatin into a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment.
  5. 5With the mixer on low speed, slowly stream in the hot liquid.
  6. 6Gradually increase the speed to high and whip until the mixture turns pale, thick, and fluffy, which may take 8-12 minutes.
  7. 7Transfer to a clean jar or container and refrigerate.
  8. 8If the fluff becomes too firm in the fridge, simply place the jar in warm water for a few minutes to soften.

Tips

  • Gelatin is good for gut health as it strengthens the stomach lining and supports digestion.
  • Gelatin has glycine, an amino acid that balances out sugar and prevents blood sugar spikes.
  • Be cautious when heating the mixture as it will be hot.
  • If the fluff becomes too firm in the fridge, place the jar in warm water for a few minutes to soften it.
