Candy was one of the hardest things to give up for me when I first started eating clean. I had a SERIOUS sugar addiction! Eventually, it because easier and since, I have experimented with ways to quench a sweet craving with natural ingredients rather than processed sugars, corn syrup and other things I know better than to have! Here is one of my new favorite recipes:
Clean Sweet-but-Tart Gummies
adapted from www.rethinksimple.com
Ingredients:
- 3/4 c Fresh Squeezed Lime Juice (Approximately 8-10 limes depending upon size)
- 3 TBSP Local Raw Honey
- 3.5 TBSP Agar Powder
- 1/3 c Stevia in the Raw
Directions:
1. Combine lime juice, local honey and agar powder in a small sauce pan. Whisk to combine on low heat.
2. Once combined, remove from heat (this should only take a minute or two).
3. Pour in a square baking pan and place in refrigerator for approximately 2 hours.
4. Remove gummies from pan and slice into 1"x1" cubes.
5. Roll cubes in stevia for added sweetness.
These are so simple, yet so delicious!
