Boil 1/4 pound of ground turkey covered with water in a small saucepan for 15 minutes to create turkey broth.

Reserve at least 1/2 cup of the turkey broth after boiling.

In a blender, combine the cooked turkey and 1/4 cup pumpkin puree. Add a couple teaspoons of turkey broth if needed for blending.

Blend until the mixture is well combined, but it doesn't need to be perfectly smooth.

In a bowl, add the reserved 1/2 cup of turkey broth and let it cool slightly.

Sprinkle 1 packet of Knox gelatin over the warm broth and stir until fully incorporated, breaking apart any clumps.

Add the turkey pumpkin mixture to the gelatin broth and mix until combined.

Pour the mixture into silicone bone-shaped molds, filling them as needed.

Clean up any spills around the molds with a damp paper towel.

Refrigerate the filled molds for at least 2 hours until set.

Carefully remove the gummies from the molds once set.
