Description
Raspberry Soufflés are a light and airy dessert made with fresh raspberries, egg whites, and a touch of sugar, perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar, divided
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 3 large egg whites
- 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened
- Powdered sugar, for dusting
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Grease four ramekins with softened butter and dust with granulated sugar, shaking out the excess.
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the raspberries, 1/4 cup of granulated sugar, and lemon juice. Cook for about 5 minutes, mashing the raspberries with a fork until they break down and the mixture thickens. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the egg whites and cream of tartar with an electric mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form.
- Gradually add the remaining 1/4 cup of granulated sugar, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the raspberry mixture and vanilla extract into the egg whites until just combined.
- Spoon the soufflé mixture into the prepared ramekins, filling them about three-quarters full.
- Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the soufflés are puffed and lightly golden.
- Remove from the oven and dust with powdered sugar before serving.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, try adding a teaspoon of almond extract to the raspberry mixture.
- You can also substitute the raspberries with other berries like blueberries or strawberries for a different taste.
