Description

These homemade Dandelion & Honey Marshmallows are a natural, vegan-friendly treat made with dandelion petal tea and honey. Soft, fluffy, and lightly sweetened, they’re perfect for a cozy treat or gifting


Ingredients

Scale
  1. 1 cup dandelion petal tea (divided)

  2. 3 tablespoons Vital Proteins Vegan Gelatin

  3. 1 cup honey

  4. 1 pinch salt

  5. 1 cup powdered sugar or arrowroot powder (for dusting)


Instructions

  • Pour 1/2 cup dandelion petal tea into a stand mixer. Sprinkle the vegan gelatin over the top and allow it to “bloom” for about 10 minutes.

  • While the gelatin is blooming, add honey, salt, and the remaining 1/2 cup of dandelion petal tea to a saucepan. Cook over high heat for 8-10 minutes until it reaches 240°F (soft ball stage on a candy thermometer).

  • When the honey syrup reaches the correct temperature, turn the stand mixer on low to break up the gelatin.

  • Slowly pour the hot honey syrup into the stand mixer, keeping it running on low to incorporate the syrup into the gelatin.

  • Gradually increase the mixer speed (to avoid splattering) and let it run on high for 6-10 minutes until the marshmallow batter forms stiff peaks and becomes pale white.

  • Grease a 9×9 baking pan and dust it with powdered sugar or arrowroot powder. Use a greased spatula to spread the marshmallow batter into the pan.

  • Let the marshmallows set for 4-6 hours, or overnight.

  • Flip the pan over, slice marshmallows, and dust all sides with more powdered sugar or arrowroot powder.

 

  • Store in a tightly sealed container for 1-2 days, or freeze for up to 1-2 months


Notes

  • These marshmallows can be stored at room temperature for a short period or frozen for long-term storage.

  • You can substitute the arrowroot powder for powdered sugar if you prefer a smoother finish.

 

  • Make sure to let the marshmallows set completely before cutting them for the best texture.
