Apple "Marshmallows" Viral

The new Insta/TikTok Reel are these "marshmallows". I have no idea who came up with this recipe in the first place.



The wobbly chunky substance tastes great and very much only like apple. It does not have any resemblance or sticky sweetness of a marshmallow.



BUT IT IS VERY TASTY and not overly sweet. Just the natural sweetness of a tart apple.



When you try it, make sure to use a good standing electric kitchen machine. The hot applesauce needs 20 minutes of high speed turning with a balloon whisk. The handheld ones do not have the speed and endurance for a 20 min whisk.



I saw many failures on line, most were using a handheld electric whisk.

Peel and core the apples and weigh them. You need 600 g of apple chunks. Juice of 1/2 lemon and 50 ml water. 2 tsp of vanilla sugar added to the pot.



20 gelatine leaves need soaking in water for 10 min. Squeeze the water out.



Cook with a lid until the apples are mush. Take a stickblender to make applesauce. Put in the gelatine immediately to dissolve it completely.



Pour the hot applesauce now in your standmixer and on high speed whisk it for 3 min, then go to halfspeed and whisk 15 min. In the end 2 more min on high.



Use a 25x13 cm dish and put baking paper in. Pour the foamy mass in and cover with clingfilm directly on the surface.

Put in the fridge for 5 hours. Do not try it earlier. Get it out and cut off cubes and enjoy.

But do not be dissapointed, the block that came out of the dish after 5 hours cooling time reminded me of a block of polenta I had to cut.

And it tastes like apples! No wonder! Not unpleasant and only a little sweet.

Ingredients:

700 g Braeburn apples to get 600 g

1/2 lemon

50 ml water

1 package vanilla sugar

20 gelatine leaves.
