Veganessentials.com sells vegan gelatin, I'm not sure how it will work though. Do NOT use Emes "kosher vegan gelatin". Emes is neither! They use animal gelatin.

Ingredients
  • 3 tbsp vegan gelatin
  • 1 c water
  • 2 c unbleached sugar
  • 3/4 c light corn syrup
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp vanilla

Directions
  1. In a bowl, place 1/2 c of the water and the vegan gelatin. Let sit 1 hr.
  2. About half an hour after doing that, begin to prepare a syrup. In heavy pan over low, add remaining 1/2 c water, sugar, corn syrup, and salt.
  3. Blend until dissolved.
  4. When the mixture starts to boil, cover for 3 minutes to allow crystals that have formed to be washed away. Be careful not to let the mixture boil over.
  5. Continue to cook uncovered and unstirred over high heat to the firm-ball stage (244 degrees F). Overcooking makes the marshmallows tough.
  6. Remove the mixture from heat and pour slowly over the gelatin, beating constantly with an electric mixer. Continue to beat about 15 minutes after all the syrup has been added. While beating, when the mixture is thick but still smooth, add vanilla.
  7. Put the mixture into an 8 x 12 in pan that has been lightly dusted with cornstarch. Dust the top with cornstarch and set aside.
  8. When it has dried for 12 hours, remove it from the pan, cut it into square with scissors dusted with cornstarch, and store the fully dusted pieces in a closed tin.
  9. Makes 1 3/4 lbs

Wow great recipe thanks


Thank you so much!!!!!!! I needed this my kids are absolutely driving me crazy for marshmallows. I can't give them the animal by-products stuff they sell at the grocery. I saw some Kosher ones at Whole Foods Market, but they contain fish gelatin. So these are sure to be a hit in my home thanks! :-)

Alterations


Possible variations:
-Add coconut extract instead of vanilla. pour into pan coated with toasted coconut and roll cut pieces in toasted coconut instead of cornstarch.
-Use creme de menthe instead of vanilla for mint marshmallows.
-Use other flavors/liquers (almond extract, orange, Kahlua, etc.) instead of vanilla.
Cut marshmallows into shapes and dip in melted vegan chocolate.
-Tint marshmallows with vegetable colors while beating the creme. Cut into holiday shapes (especially nice for spring - Easter, etc.).
