Naturally Sweetened Homemade Lemon Jello

Recipe Description

This Naturally Sweetened Homemade Lemon Jello is a delicious jello recipe which is sweetened naturally with honey. When you make this, make sure you use light colored honey so that the flavor doesn’t overpower the jello. I also choose grass-fed gelatin which is free from GMOs, antibiotics and hormones.

To make this jello, start by pouring lemon juice and water into a saucepan. Add gelatin and heat until it dissolves. Add the honey and stir until it is completely dissolved. Pour the jello into a glass dish or mold and place in the refrigerator to chill until completely set. Enjoy!

To make Naturally Sweetened Homemade Lemon Jello, you will need the following ingredients:

An amazingly light dessert with a luxurious texture. Easy to make, but could be a stunner at a "special occasion" dinner. I will definitely make again.
