Apple Marshmallows
Ingredients
- 4 apples, peeled, cored, and chopped into 1-inch chunks
- 1/2 cup water
- 2 tablespoons unflavored gelatin, granular
- 1 tablespoon honey, optional
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar, for dusting

- 1
Place the peeled, cored, and chopped apples into a medium saucepan. Add the water, ensuring the apples are just covered. Bring to a gentle boil over medium-high heat.

Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the saucepan, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the apples are very soft and easily pierced with a fork.
⏱️ 15 min
- 3
Remove the saucepan from the heat. Using an immersion blender, carefully puree the cooked apples directly in the pot until completely smooth and no lumps remain. The consistency should be like a thick applesauce.

While the apple puree is still warm, stir in the granular gelatin until it is fully dissolved. If using, add the optional honey and stir until combined.

Transfer the apple-gelatin mixture to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Whip on high speed for 10-15 minutes, or until the mixture becomes very thick, fluffy, and white, resembling marshmallow cream.

Line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides to easily lift the marshmallow block later. Pour the whipped marshmallow mixture into the prepared dish and spread evenly with a spatula.
⏱️ 3 min

Cover the dish tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or until the marshmallow is completely set and firm to the touch.

Once set, remove the marshmallow block from the dish by lifting the parchment paper overhang. Place it on a clean cutting board. Dust the top generously with powdered sugar.

Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut the marshmallow block into desired square pieces. Dust all sides of the cut marshmallows with additional powdered sugar to prevent sticking.
