Lactose Free Apple-Ginger Collagen Gummies
These little gummies are a genuinely fun way to sneak some gut-supporting collagen into your day, and the flavor combination of apple, warming ginger, and Ceylon cinnamon makes them taste more like a treat than a supplement. Every ingredient here is naturally free of dairy, so there's no swapping or substituting needed — just a clean, wholesome snack that works straight out of the recipe. The process is simpler than it looks: bloom the gelatin, warm everything together gently, strain out the ginger fibers, and let the fridge do the rest of the work. Using 100% pure apple juice keeps the sweetness honest, and the honey rounds out the spice without overpowering it. They set up firm enough to pop cleanly out of a silicone mold or slice neatly from a baking dish, making them easy to portion and pack for the week. Keep a batch in an airtight container and you've got a two-bite snack ready whenever you need it.

4 servings
- 2 cups fresh juice or 100% pure apple juice, unsweetened
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger, peeled and finely grated
- ¼ tsp ground ceylon cinnamon
- 1 tbsp honey
- 3 tbsp unflavored grass-fed beef gelatin powder
Instructions
- 1
Pour 1 cup of the apple juice into the small saucepan and sprinkle the gelatin powder evenly over the surface. Let it sit undisturbed for 3–5 minutes until the gelatin has absorbed the juice and the surface looks matte and slightly wrinkled — this is the bloom step and ensures the gelatin dissolves smoothly.

Add the remaining 1 cup of apple juice, the grated ginger, Ceylon cinnamon, and honey to the saucepan. Warm over medium-low heat, whisking gently, until the gelatin is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth and steaming — about 3–4 minutes. Do not let it boil.
