Description
These sugar-free marshmallows are soft, fluffy, and perfectly sweet without using traditional sugar. They are light, airy, and ideal for hot chocolate, roasting, desserts, or low-carb snacking.
Ingredients
1 cup water
2 tablespoons unflavored gelatin powder
1 cup powdered allulose
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
Optional: keto powdered sweetener for dusting
Instructions
- Line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup of water with the gelatin powder. Whisk gently and let sit for 10 minutes to bloom.
- In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the remaining 1/2 cup of water, powdered allulose, and a pinch of salt. Stir constantly and simmer gently for about 5 minutes until dissolved.
- Add the bloomed gelatin to the bowl of a stand mixer or use a hand mixer. With the mixer on low speed, slowly pour in the hot sweetener mixture.
- Increase the mixer speed and whip for 10–12 minutes until the mixture becomes thick, glossy, and forms stiff peaks.
- Quickly pour the marshmallow mixture into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Refrigerate for at least 6 hours or until fully firm.
- Cut into squares with a sharp knife and dust lightly with powdered keto sweetener to prevent sticking.
Notes
Allulose provides the best marshmallow texture compared to other sugar-free sweeteners.
Add peppermint, almond, or coconut extract for flavor variations.
Dust with powdered keto sweetener if the marshmallows become sticky.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
These marshmallows can be toasted lightly for s’mores or hot chocolate toppings.
