Instructions

  • Start by greasing a 9x9” baking pan with avocado oil. Dust all sides lightly with powdered sugar.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, add water and mix with powdered gelatin until combined. Let sit.
  • In a medium-sized pot, add granulated sugar, corn salt, and water. Mix to combine.
  • Set over medium-high heat and bring to a light boil. TIP: Watch the sugar mixture and stir every few minutes during this process! You do not want the sugar to burn. Usually, this stage takes 5-10 minutes in total. Boil until 240F and immediately remove from heat.
  • In a stand mixer with the whisk attachment, whisk the gelatin a bit on low speed before slowly streaming the syrup mixture down the side of the bowl. Gradually increase speed until high.
  • Once on high speed continue streaming in the syrup until all is added. Keep whisking for 5 minutes.
  • Before removing from the stand mixer, beat in vanilla extract until combined. The mixture should be fluffy, white, and up to 3x more volume than the initial mixture.
  • Immediately remove from the stand mixer and immediately pour into the dusted baking dish. Even out using a silicone spatula or hands
  • Leave on the counter uncovered for 12 hours.
  • Turn the set marshmallow out onto a work surface dusted with powdered sugar. Cut the marshmallows with an oiled knife.
  • Sprinkle cut pieces with more powdered sugar before serving or storing them in an air-tight container.
  • STORAGE: Do NOT store them in the refrigerator as they will melt. Store in an airtight container at room temperature. Marshmallows store well for 2-3 weeks on the counter.
