Spread the love

Ingredients for 4 servings:

  • 8 peach halves, fresh or from the can
  • 2 tsp lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp jam (raspberry jam)
  • 3 egg whites
  • 1 tsp lemon(s) – zest, grated untreated
  • 6 tbsp powdered sugar

Instructions

Working time approx. 10 minutes; Total time approx. 10 minutes

Preheat the oven to 250 degrees Celsius (482 degrees Fahrenheit). Drain the peach halves. Combine the lemon juice with the raspberry jam and fill the peach halves with it. Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form and gently fold in the grated lemon zest and powdered sugar (preferably sifted). Spread the egg whites evenly over the peach halves and place them in an ovenproof dish. Then bake the peaches until the egg whites are lightly browned. Keep an eye on them, or they’ll burn!
