Homemade Jelly/Jello

My boys love jelly, but I can't bring myself to make it from a packet! As I love to make most things from scratch, this recipe is now part of the family meals repertoire. It's easy to make and your children can help you too. This is good for you and my boys love to eat it for breakfast with homemade vanilla yoghurt!



1.5 cups real fruit juice
1T gelatin
1/4 cup cold water
1/4 cup hot water
chopped fruit (optional)

Mix the gelatin and cold water. Stir until the gelatin has softened. Add the hot water and dissolve the gelatin. Add the fruit juice. Line your container with chopped fruit. Pour over the liquid and refridgerate for at least 3 hours.

Tip: double the recipe and use a pretty mould to make this. The fruit will be on top when you turn it out. Chopped strawberries look beautiful when used.
