GUT-FRIENDLY GUMMIES

Makes 20 of each

Coconut

1 cup coconut yoghurt

2 Tbsp honey

½ tsp vanilla

1/8 tsp turmeric

2 Tbsp gelatin
Berry

1 cup frozen berries

¼ cup sugar

¼ cup water

2 Tbsp gelatin

½ tsp vanilla
  1. Line two loaf tins with baking paper.
  2. For the coconut gummies, place the coconut yoghurt, honey, vanilla and turmeric in a small bowl and warm in the microwave for 1 minute. Add the gelatin, stirring through, and reheat for 30 seconds or until smooth. Let the mixture sit for a few minutes, stir, then pour into the tin and allow to go completely cold in the fridge. Cut into pieces.
  3. Place the berries in a pot with the sugar, water, gelatin and vanilla, cooking for 5 minutes until softened. Place them into a blender with the softened gelatin or use a stick blender to whizz until smooth. Pour into the tin and cool completely in the fridge, then cut into pieces.
