Berry Kefir Dessert Cups
- Ready In:
- 20mins
- Ingredients:
- 6
- Serves:
-
4
ingredients
- 1⁄2 - 1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin (one envelope holds 1 tbl)
- 1⁄4 cup cold water
- 1 cup pureed strawberry (about 10 ounces fresh)
- sugar (optional)
- lemon juice (optional)
- 1 cup plain kefir
directions
- In a small saucepan, combine the cold water and gelatin. Let it stand for about 15 minutes.(I think I like the smaller quantity of gelatin better, the larger makes a firmer dessert - possibly something you could unmold).
- In the meantime, puree your fruit. I used my stick blender, and it wasn't completely smooth, but that was ok with me. Taste the puree - you might want to add a little sugar or lemon juice to sweeten or perk up the flavor.
- Pour about half of the puree into the saucepan and heat over low heat, stirring frequently, until the gelatin is fully dissolved, about 5 minutes.
- Pour into a medium bowl and combine with the remaining puree and the kefir.
- Pour into individual serving dishes and refrigerate until it's jellied - about three hours should do it.
- Garnish with some fresh strawberry slices or whipped cream would be nice, if you desire. Also good just as it is.

My screen name is a diminutive in Lithuanian for bread, so you won't be suprised to learn that I love to bake bread. In recent years I have been baking a lot of sourdough breads and have several starters sitting in my refrigerator. But I like to cook a lot of other things, as well, especially from various cultures. The cat wishes I would concentrate on meat and fish... I joined a few years ago but started posting recipes and participating in forums just recently - I wish I had done so earlier. Recipezaar is a great community! Right now I am a co-host for the Breads and Baking and the Eastern Europe forums - I hope to see you there!
