Ingredients
- 2 cups mixed fresh fruit (e.g., strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, peaches), diced
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 packet (2 teaspoons) unflavored gelatin
- 1/4 cup cold water
- 1 1/2 cups boiling water
Instructions
- In a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin over cold water and let stand for 5 minutes to bloom.
- In a large bowl, combine diced fruit, sugar, and lemon juice. Gently toss to coat.
- Pour boiling water over the bloomed gelatin and stir until completely dissolved.
- Pour the gelatin mixture over the fruit and stir gently to combine.
- Pour the mixture into a 4-cup mold or individual serving dishes.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set.
- To unmold, dip the mold in warm water for a few seconds, then invert onto a plate.
Tips
- Use any combination of your favorite fruits; avoid fresh pineapple, kiwi, or papaya as they contain enzymes that prevent setting unless cooked first.
- Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
