Cherry souffle

6 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
¾ cup Cherry pur‚e
1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
3 Egg whites
1 Pinch of salt
Sugar to taste

Directions

Pit and pur‚e enough sour cherries to make ¾ cup. (My guess is that something over 1 cup whole cherries will be required.) Preheat the oven to 375øF. Oil a 1-quart souffl‚ dish and sprinkle it with sugar. Heat the cherry pur‚e in a small pan. Add the lemon juice, salt, and sugar to taste, and stir to blend; remove from the heat. Beat the egg whites until stiff but not dry and stir them into the hot pur‚e until evenly blended.

Spoon into the souffl‚ dish and bake for 20-25 minutes.
