Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make homemade marmalade without sugar? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. First, pour the gelatin into a glass of warm boiled water. According to the instructions, my gelatin needs 40-60 minutes. for swelling. If you want a thicker marmalade consistency, just use a little more gelatin. You will learn all the intricacies of working with gelatin by reading an article on this topic. There is a link to it at the end of this recipe.

Step 2

Step 2
Wash the oranges thoroughly in running water using fruit wash and cut them in half.

Step 3

Step 3
Squeeze the juice from all prepared oranges. I use a mechanical citrus juicer. But you can squeeze out the juice just with your hands.

Step 4

Step 4
No matter how hard I tried, bones still got into the fresh juice. Therefore, I suggest straining the resulting juice through a sieve. At the same time, the pulp will be removed. You can also use gauze folded in several layers.

Step 5

Step 5
Wash and peel the bananas. The banana is the main source of sweetness in this recipe. So if you want a sweeter marmalade, increase the amount of bananas, but do not forget about the gelatin proportions! Or just add a little honey.

Step 6

Step 6
Wash the kiwi and remove the skin. I put kiwi here not so much for the taste, but for its seeds. They will have a pleasant crunch in the finished marmalade. And no expensive chia seeds are needed!

Step 7

Step 7
Cut bananas and kiwis as desired and place in a blender bowl. We need to get the smoothest, almost homogenized puree without lumps.

Step 8

Step 8
Blend the fruits with a blender until smooth. Donʼt worry about the kiwi seeds. If you use a regular home blender, they will remain safe and sound. The same cannot be said, for example, about a smoothie blender: the seeds will definitely be crushed there.

Step 9

Step 9
Pour the banana and kiwi puree into a saucepan or ladle. Add orange juice and mix thoroughly.

Step 10

Step 10
Heat the fruit mixture over low heat, stirring constantly. Bring the mixture to a boil. Just one more minute and turn off the oven.

Step 11

Step 11
According to the instructions, my gelatin must be heated over low heat, without bringing it to a boil. Stir until the lumps are completely dissolved.

Step 12

Step 12
Now I will have to additionally strain the gelatin through a sieve, as required on the label.

Step 13

Step 13
Pour the fruit mixture into the mold you plan to leave the marmalade in until it thickens. Add gelatin. Try to choose a mold of such a size that the marmalade layer ends up being no more than 2-2.5 cm high.

Step 14

Step 14
All that remains is to thoroughly mix both mixtures until smooth. Then the marmalade will do all the work itself. For the first 2-3 hours it should rest at room temperature. Then put the natural sugar-free marmalade made at home in the refrigerator until it hardens completely.
