Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cup granulated Monk Fruit
- 3/4 cup freeze-dried strawberries
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Gather 1 1/4 cup of granulated Monk Fruit sweetener and 3/4 cup of freeze-dried strawberries.
- Grind Ingredients: Place the freeze-dried strawberries and the granulated Monk Fruit into a coffee grinder or food processor. Avoid using a high-power blender like a Ninja bullet because it can reduce the mixture to a powdered sugar consistency instead of a granular texture.
- Pulse to Combine: Pulse the mixture until the strawberries and Monk Fruit are combined thoroughly and the mixture achieves a deep pink color, indicating even distribution of the strawberry flavor.
- Store Properly: Transfer the strawberry sugar to a clean glass jar and seal it tightly to keep it fresh and maintain its flavor.
Notes
- Use a coffee grinder or food processor for best results as high-speed blenders may over-grind the mixture.
- Store in an airtight container to preserve freshness and prevent moisture absorption.
- This strawberry sugar is perfect for sweetening tea, yogurt, or baking recipes requiring a fruity sweetness.
