Ingredients

Ingredients for Mousse

300 ml drinking yogurt (about 1.25 cups)
sweetener to taste
300 g berries (strawberries recommended, about 2.5 cups)

Instructions

Step 1

Prepare Gelatin

In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of gelatin with 100 ml of cold water. Let it sit for about 10 to 15 minutes to allow the gelatin to bloom.

After blooming, gently heat the mixture in a microwave or over a double boiler until the gelatin fully dissolves. Set aside to cool slightly.

Step 2

Blend Yogurt and Berries

In a mixing bowl, pour in 300 ml of drinking yogurt and add sweetener to taste. You can use honey, maple syrup, or stevia based on your preference.

Add 300 g of your chosen berries (strawberries work great) to the yogurt mixture. Using an immersion blender, blend until the mixture is smooth and bubbly.

Step 3

Combine and Chill

Slowly add the slightly cooled gelatin mixture into the yogurt and berry blend. Make sure to blend well so that the gelatin is evenly distributed.

Once combined, pour the mousse mixture into your preferred molds or serving dishes. Place them in the refrigerator for a couple of hours until fully set.

For a **gluten-free** option, rest assured that this recipe is already naturally gluten-free! Just check your gelatin brand to ensure it's certified gluten-free.

If you want to make it **vegan**, you can substitute the yogurt with a plant-based alternative like coconut yogurt or almond yogurt. Instead of regular gelatin, try using agar-agar for a vegan-friendly thickening agent. Just remember to adjust quantities since agar-agar can set more firmly than gelatin.

Faq

  • What if I don't have a blender?

    You can mash the ingredients with a fork or use a whisk! It will take a bit more effort, but you can still achieve a fluffy mixture.

  • How can I tell if my gelatin is properly dissolved?

    It should look clear and smooth without any lumps. If you see lumps, it might need a bit more microwaving or stirring.

  • Can I use frozen berries instead of fresh?

    Yes, you can! Just make sure to thaw them first and drain any excess liquid before adding them to the mix.

  • How do I know if I whipped the yogurt mixture enough?

    You’re looking for a light and airy texture with bubbles forming! It should almost double in volume. If in doubt, whip a little longer!

  • Can I use this recipe with flavors other than strawberries?

    Absolutely! Experiment with other fruits like mango, raspberries, or even matcha for a unique twist!

  • What’s the best way to store the marshmallows?

    Keep them in an airtight container in the fridge. They’re best enjoyed within a week, but they’re so good, they might not last that long!
