Pumpkin-Spice Marshmallows

Forgot to say that you probably won't need Pam if you use the Reynolds non stick foil over your cooling pan. I used a 10 1/2 x 15" pan and it was fine.

Next time I will also think about substituting things like Mace, nutmeg, and cardamom for the serious cinnamon and cloves the recipe calls for. I'll also think about some extract. I added a 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, and probably could have added more.

I just made my first batch, too. Unfortunately I didn't see the post above, but Fiksu is right: there was not much pumpkin flavor, and a lot of clove.

I am thinking about using these on top of Sweet Potatoes for an update on the childhood favorite for Thankgiving.

Oui,oui...I count my blessings everyday! Thanks for your quick response. Will give it a try!

Yes, Girlcook, you should be able to substitute both by weight. Glucose is a little less sweet than corn syrup, but it should yield about the same results texturally.

Oh, to live in a country where sheet gelatin and glucose are more readily available than powdered gelatin and corn syrup....:o)

Thank you for sharing this recipe & Eileen's book. I'd love to try making these, but I have a question about a couple ingredients: do you know if sheet gelatine will work the same as powdered gelatin (at the same weight)? I stock sheet gelatin in my pantry....(cheaper to buy where I'm located). Also, I have glucose but not corn syrup. I'm guessing these would be interchangeable. Have any advice? Thanks! :)

Sorry for these long-delayed responses. I don't seem to get notifications for the majority of new comments, so comments on older posts often slip through the cracks.

vernete: I'm not sure if it'd be worth going to the trouble of making peanut-butter marshmallows for the purpose of melting them down to make fudge. Peanut-butter marshmallows are, however, possible. I used them, coated in buttery toasted Japanese bread crumbs, as a restaurant petit four for a time - sort of a take on a fluffer-nutter sandwich.

As cyberroo pointed out, mixing fatty ingredients like peanut butter into a marshmallow batter can cause problems. So, to make my peanut-butter marshmallows, I began with a plain marshmallow base and gently folded in slightly warmed peanut butter just before spreading the marshmallow batter in a pan. Folding in the peanut butter, leaving it in well-distributed ribbons, rather than thoroughly mixing it in to the plain marshmallow, is crucial to maintaining a stable, light finished product.

frolis: I'm sure that there is some way to make marshmallows with agar, but I've never tried it. I'll tinker around with it soon, and write up a post if I end up with good results...

I used 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice instead and they came out great! use a little less if you want more pumpkin-y flavor.

Just made these (http://is.gd/9aIW), I am going to use them to make Marshmallow Apple Pie. I don't usually like marshmallows, but man. Incredible.

I just spread these in the pan, and they already taste delicious, all gooey! I think I'll cut them with a gingerbread man cookie cutter to bring them to Thanksgiving. I was also thinking that, for those who like white chocolate, a very nice S'more could be a fun recipe!
