Making homemade marshmallows is easier than you'd think, and honestly, it's one of my favorite weekend projects. These honey marshmallows are light, fluffy, and taste infinitely better than the store bought kind, plus you can whip up a whole batch in less than an hour. The honey isn't just for sweetness either, it contains natural antioxidants and enzymes that make these treats a bit more wholesome than regular marshmallows. Best of all, this recipe uses simple pantry staples you probably already have, so there's no hunting for specialty ingredients. Trust me, once you taste these pillowy clouds of sweetness, you'll never go back.
