Step-by-step description of the process

For this recipe, it is better to choose sweet varieties of apples, because the marshmallow is prepared without sugar. Fruits of the “Golden” or “Lungwort” varieties are perfect.
We wash the fruits, peel them and remove seeds. Cut into pieces and transfer to a slow cooker.
Pour water into the apples and set the multicooker to “Baking”. We send the fruit there for 40 minutes. After time, the apples will soften and will need to be beaten with a mixer or blender.
Place parchment on a baking sheet or any other form and lightly grease with vegetable oil. It is better to use parchment rather than foil, because marshmallows do not stick to paper. Spread a thin layer of puree and spread it over the parchment using a knife or wooden spatula.
To dry the marshmallow, you will need an oven or electric dryer. The pastille dries in the dryer in 3 hours, in the oven it will take 5 hours. After cooling, cut the dessert into pieces.
If you plan to store the dessert all winter, you need to transfer it to a dry container. Cover tightly and keep in a dry place.

Tip : if you have an electric dryer, give it priority over the oven. In an electric dryer, marshmallows are prepared 2 times faster, retaining their beautiful color and vitamins. If you dry it in the oven, do not close the door tightly so that air can get into the dessert and the pastille retains its appetizing appearance.

Healthy apple marshmallow without cooking

There are several ways to prepare marshmallows. Basically this is cooking and further drying. Today I want to tell you another recipe for making marshmallows without cooking using only the oven. The marshmallow will consist entirely of apples without added sugar. This marshmallow, unfortunately, does not last very long, but it is very useful. Complexity:

average.
Cooking time:
3 hours.
Ingredients:

Apples - any quantity

Preparation procedure:
Take apples. I use apples from the orchard. There are many of them and you can make a large amount of marshmallows at once. Wash the apples and place them on a baking sheet. Just in case, you can cover the baking sheet with parchment, or you don’t have to cover it. It’s just that if the skin of the apples cracks during baking, the juice will leak out and may even begin to burn. Parchment paper will help prevent burning. I had a piece of parchment left over from making the loaves, so I simply turned it over and used it as a bed for the apples. Turn on the oven at 150 degrees and bake the apples until fully cooked for 10-15 minutes. You can check readiness by pricking the apple with a knife or fork. If the apple is soft and a fork fits into it very easily, it means it is baked. And you can remove the apples from the oven. Now let the apples cool a little so that they don’t burn your hands.

Now we need to remove the skin from each apple and place the pulp in a deep cup. We also don’t need the core, so we throw away the apple partitions and seeds. We should have very soft applesauce. Which needs to be mixed well. Now take a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and spread the applesauce on it. Level the puree well with a spoon, spatula or fork. The layer of puree should not exceed 1 cm, otherwise the pastille will have to dry for a very long time, up to two days. I usually make pastille 4-5 millimeters thick. And it dries in 3-5 hours. Place the baking sheet with marshmallows in the oven at 50 degrees. Dry the marshmallow for an hour. Periodically open the oven door to allow fresh air to flow in. The finished pastille should not be too dry and should easily come away from the parchment. My marshmallow dried quite quickly, within 2 hours, with short breaks for turning the oven on and off. We cut the finished marshmallow into small strips to make it easier to eat. That's all, the pastille is ready. Bon appetit!

Pastila can be prepared from any variety of apples, but there are nuances in preparing the delicacy. Sweet varieties of apples are excellent: “Lungwort”, “Candy”, “Golden”, “Penin”. Their advantage is that you don’t have to add sugar or honey. Sour apples: “Simirenko”, “Bely naliv” and “Antonovka” require a considerable amount of granulated sugar. “Antonovka” and “Anise” boil well, making an excellent homogeneous puree. The varieties “Borovinka” and “Cinnamon” are the most fragrant apples.

When preparing marshmallows, you need to meet certain conditions, and then the dessert will turn out great. Winter is just around the corner, so it's time to prepare a healthy treat.

At home it is prepared as follows:

Peel 2 kg of apples, cut them into pieces and place on a baking sheet. Bake the pieces for 20-30 minutes, and then grind them with a blender.
Add 5 tablespoons of honey to the puree, beat the products with a mixer. After 10-15 minutes the mass should lighten.
Beat 4 egg whites with a pinch of salt until thick foam forms.
Mix the prepared products. Don't forget to leave some of the apple mixture for coating the marshmallow.
Line a baking sheet with parchment and place the mixture on it. The thickness of the workpiece should not exceed 4 cm.
Place the future marshmallow in an oven preheated to 90 degrees for 5-6 hours. After this, cut the workpiece into 4 parts and brush each with an apple-protein mixture. Stack the sheets on top of each other and dry them for another 3 hours at the same temperature.

This type of marshmallow can be stored in the refrigerator for several months and remain just as tasty.

Belevskaya apple pastila is a traditional Russian dessert. It was invented and first produced by the merchant Prokhorov in the small town of Belev, Tula region. This is where the name of the famous dish came from - Belyovskaya pastila. Today we will look at ways to prepare Belevsky apple marshmallow at home.

To prepare the marshmallow we will need the following ingredients:

apples - 2 kilograms;
granulated sugar - 100 grams;
egg - 1 piece;
powdered sugar for sprinkling.

It is preferable to take the Antonovka variety for apples. If you don’t find any, then you can take any apples with dense and sweet pulp. You will not need the whole egg, but only its white part.

Plum pastille with honey

plums - 1 kg;
lemon - 0.5 pcs.;
honey - 0.2 l.

Cooking method:

Peel the plums and grind through a meat grinder. Place the puree in a saucepan and place over low heat. Boil the plum puree until it is reduced by a third.
Squeeze the juice out of half a lemon, grate the zest from the fruit (you will need a teaspoon).
Add lemon juice and zest to plum puree. Continue boiling it for another 10-15 minutes.
Add melted honey until liquid, stir.
Transfer the plum mixture onto a baking sheet greased with vegetable oil and smooth with a spatula. The optimal layer thickness is 6–8 mm.
Preheat the oven to 100–110 degrees, place a baking tray with fruit and honey mixture in it, cook for 5–6 hours.

This way the marshmallow turns out stickier than the previous ones, but more tasty and healthy. You can also use it to sandwich cookies or use it to make other desserts.

Plum marshmallow has a pleasant sweet and sour taste, rich color, and pleasant aroma. Making it at home is not difficult, but you will have to be patient, as this process is lengthy.

Well, what other preparations can you make from plums for the winter besides jam, marmalade, marmalade and compote? Yes, at least plum marshmallow! This is a very tasty, natural and healthy dessert that your kids will love. Plum marshmallow turns out thin, has a very interesting texture and rolls up perfectly. Its sweet and sour taste is completely devoid of cloying, since we will not use so much sugar.

To prepare plum marshmallows, fruits of absolutely any condition are suitable - not quite ripe or, on the contrary, overripe. You can adjust the amount of sugar at your discretion - just try the finished jam. If you want, make it without sugar at all, but then the marshmallow will be quite sour. Aromatic additives (cinnamon, mint, cardamom, nutmeg, cloves, star anise, etc.) are also optional.

In total, from the specified amount of plums and sugar, 250 grams of ready-made homemade marshmallow is obtained. Just enough for one standard baking sheet (60x60 centimeters). One roll (if you also make 8 pieces) will contain about 30 grams of dessert with a calorie content of 103 kcal per serving.
