Report
These homemade marshmallows made with no corn syrup are bouncy, soft, and perfect for s'mores, hot cocoa, gifting, or roasting over a fire.

Ingredients
- 1 cup water divided, filtered
- 3 tablespoons gelatin powdered
- 1 cup honey light-colored
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- arrowroot starch to coat the outsides of the marshmallows
Instructions
- Grease an 8×8 inch pan and line it with parchment paper in both directions, leaving about an inch as handles to lift out the marshmallows.
- Dust the parchment paper with arrowroot starch.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the gelatin with ½ cup of water.
- Combine the remaining ½ cup of water with honey, vanilla, and salt in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring the mixture to a boil.
- Once boiling, place a candy thermometer in the saucepan and continue to boil the mixture until it reaches 240F (the softball stage). Immediately remove the saucepan from the heat.
- Insert the whisk attachment in the mixer and turn on medium speed while you pour the honey mixture into the gelatin.
- Turn the mixer to high and continue beating until the honey and gelatin become thick like marshmallow cream.
- Turn off the mixer and pour the marshmallow cream into the parchment-lined pan. Smooth the top and add another light dusting of arrowroot starch over the marshmallows.
- Cut a piece of an 8-inch square of parchment paper and place it over the marshmallows, gently pressing it over the top to smooth them out.
- Allow the marshmallows to “set” for 4-6 hours. They're ready to slice once the texture is bouncy.
- Lift the big marshmallow square out of the pan and onto the counter. Using a sharp knife slice it into 16 squares.
Notes
- Plain Knox gelatin will work too.
- I don't use raw honey for this because it's a lot more expensive and when you boil the honey the "raw" ness goes away. So for me, it's not worth the extra expense.
- If you are not on a GAPS diet, Paleo lifestyle, or don't have arrowroot, you can use conventional powdered sugar for dusting.
- storage note: If you cover these the moisture will remain in the marshmallow and they won't completely dry out. don't cover them with plastic wrap. I leave mine out on the counter, uncovered, until they are gone.
- how to package these to "gift": I recommend lining a small box with parchment paper and placing marshmallows in the box, not in a bag.
