Healthy Apple Marshmallows

Recipe by Ralston D'Souza on InstagramAdded 8 November 2026.

15 minutes to prep, 15 to cook. These light, fluffy apple marshmallows are a low‑calorie treat made from pureed apples and gelatin. A hint of honey adds subtle sweetness, but they are delicious on their own, perfect for a quick snack or guilt‑free dessert.

Method

  1. Add the peeled and chopped apples to a pot with some water and bring to a boil. Cook for about 15 minutes until the apples are soft and mushy.

  2. Drain any excess water, then mash or blend the apples until completely smooth.

  3. Stir in the powdered gelatin and honey, if using, until fully dissolved.

  4. Whip the mixture with an electric mixer until it becomes thick, pale, and fluffy.

  5. Pour the whipped mixture into a lined tray and refrigerate for about 1 hour until set.

  6. Cut the set marshmallow into 15 pieces and serve.
