Ingredients
Scale
Fruits:
- 1 pound (454 grams) peaches, peeled and sliced (defrosted frozen peaches can be used)
Liquid Ingredients:
- ⅓ cup (79 milliliters) orange juice
- 2 tablespoons + 1 teaspoon (31 milliliters) honey
Thickening Agent:
- 2 tablespoons + 1 teaspoon (10 grams) gelatin
Optional Coating:
- Granulated sweetener
Instructions
- Peel ripe peaches and combine with orange juice in a blender, processing until achieving a silky, uniform liquid consistency.
- Position a fine mesh strainer over a medium pot, thoroughly filtering the peach mixture by pressing through with a silicone spatula to maximize juice extraction.
- Transfer the strained peach liquid into the pot, integrating honey and stirring until completely incorporated.
- Evenly disperse gelatin across the peach mixture, gently folding to ensure uniform distribution, then allow the mixture to rest for approximately two minutes to activate gelatin’s thickening properties.
- Position the pot on low heat, warming the liquid for 3-4 minutes while periodically stirring, ensuring complete dissolution and smooth texture.
- Carefully transfer the liquid into silicone gummy molds using a dropper, or alternatively, pour into a spacious glass container for setting.
- Refrigerate the molds or container, allowing the gummies to solidify completely over 4-6 hours until reaching a firm, stable consistency.
- Once set, delicately extract the gummies from their molds, optionally coating with granulated sweetener to replicate traditional peach ring texture.
- Preserve the gummies in the refrigerator, maintaining their freshness and enjoying their vibrant, fruity essence.
Notes
- Boost your gummy-making success by using ripe, sweet peaches for maximum flavor intensity.
- Straining the peach mixture thoroughly ensures a smooth, silky texture without unwanted pulp or fiber.
- Gelatin needs proper blooming time to create the perfect chewy, bouncy gummy consistency.
- Low and slow heating prevents gelatin from breaking down, maintaining the ideal gummy structure.
- Silicone molds make removing gummies effortless and help create professional-looking treats.
- Refrigeration is crucial for setting gummies firmly and developing their signature texture.
