Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 4 large free-range egg whites
  • 125 g 4oz caster sugar
  • 4 tbsp Bonne Maman Strawberry Conserve
  • 1 tbsp Icing sugar to finish

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 200°C (180°C for fan ovens), gas mark 6.
  • Lightly grease ramekin dishes with butter and place them in a roasting tin.
  • In a clean, dry bowl, whisk egg whites until stiff peaks form.
  • Slowly add sugar while whisking to create a thick, glossy mixture.
  • Gently fold in strawberry conserve with a spatula.
  • Spoon mixture into ramekins, filling about three-quarters full.
  • Bake on the center shelf for 12-15 mins until golden and risen.
  • Lightly dust soufflés with icing sugar.
  • Serve immediately for the best texture and flavour.

Notes

  1. For an equally gorgeous soufflé, try Bonne Maman Berries and Cherries, Blackcurrant or Raspberry Conserve.
  2. Put a small scoop of solid ice cream in the base of each ramekin before adding the meringue for a Baked Alaska-type pudding.
