Notes

Just as a reminder it’s not always about doing everything from scratch, but knowing how in case you ever need to.

Homemade marshmallows are so easy to make and honestly, so much better than the ones at the store.

They’re made with real ingredients and are actually gut-friendly thanks to the grass-fed gelatin.

Why they’re better for you:
-Glycine (in the gelatin) helps balance the sugar. So you’re less likely to get a big blood sugar spike from the honey.
-Gelatin is rich in amino acids like glycine and proline that help repair and strengthen the gut lining, which is helpful for anyone with digestive issues or leaky gut.
-Gelatin binds to water and supports smooth digestion.
-Glycine also has anti-inflammatory properties that can promote long-term gut repair.

Hi, if wanting to use these homemade marshmallows to make Rice Krispies, will one batch be good enough or how much would I need to make to in order to make the recipe. Thank you for your time.
