Pineapple Gelatin Dessert (No Sugar)

🍍 Pineapple Gelatin Dessert (No Sugar)

Ingredients:

• 1 cup unsweetened pineapple juice (chilled)

• 2 tbsp unflavored gelatin powder (or agar agar for vegan version)

🥣 Instructions:

1. Bloom gelatin:
   In a bowl, add ½ cup of the pineapple juice and sprinkle gelatin on top. Let it sit for 5 minutes to bloom (soften).

2. Heat mixture:
   In a saucepan, heat the remaining ½ cup of pineapple juice until warm (not boiling).

3. Combine:
   Add the bloomed gelatin to the warm juice and stir until completely dissolved.

4. Pour & chill:
   Pour the mixture into a glass bowl or mold (like in the picture).
   Refrigerate for 4–5 hours or until set and firm.

5. Serve:
   Scoop or slice and serve chilled! It’s light, refreshing, and naturally sweet from pineapple.

💡 Optional Add-ons (still sugar-free):

• Mix in a few pineapple chunks before chilling.

• Add a few drops of vanilla essence for flavor depth.

• Use stevia or monk fruit if you want it slightly sweeter.

  ❓ Q&A

  Q: Can I use canned pineapple juice?
  A: Yes, but make sure it’s unsweetened and not from fresh pineapple, as fresh enzymes can prevent the gelatin from setting.

  Q: What if I don’t have gelatin?
  A: You can use agar agar (1½ tsp powder) — it sets even without refrigeration.

  Q: How long does it last in the fridge?
  A: Up to 4 days if kept covered and chilled.

  Q: Can I make it sweeter without sugar?
  A: Yes! Add a few drops of stevia or monk fruit extract before chilling.

  Q: Can I make layers?
  A: Absolutely! Chill the first layer halfway, then pour another flavor (like coconut or mango juice gelatin) on top.
