Giving your kids the essential vitamins and nutrients they need can sometimes be a challenge. But what if you could make their vitamin intake a fun and enjoyable experience? Homemade gummy vitamins are the perfect solution! Not only are they a healthier alternative to store-bought gummies, but you can also customize them to include the vitamins and minerals your kids need. Here’s how to make homemade gummy vitamins that your kids will absolutely love:
Ingredients:
- 1 package unflavored gelatin
- 1/2 cup fruit juice (your child’s favorite flavor)
- 1/4 cup honey or agave nectar
-Desired vitamins and minerals (such as vitamin C powder, multivitamin powder, or mineral supplements)
-Optional: food coloring or natural fruit powders for color
Instructions:
- In a small saucepan, combine the gelatin and fruit juice. Let it sit for a few minutes to allow the gelatin to bloom.
- Add the honey or agave nectar and heat the mixture over low heat, stirring constantly until the gelatin is completely dissolved.
- Turn off the heat and add your desired vitamins and minerals. Mix well to ensure they are evenly distributed.
- If you want to add color, stir in a few drops of food coloring or a small amount of natural fruit powder.
- Pour the mixture into gummy molds or use small silicone molds in fun shapes. If you don’t have molds, you can also pour the mixture into a lined baking tray and cut it into squares or shapes once it’s set.
- Refrigerate the molds for about 30 minutes or until the gummies are firm.
- Pop the gummy vitamins out of the molds and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
