Fruity Snow Pudding

Adopted by Inge

Fruity Snow Pudding is a refreshing twist on the classic version, infused with the natural sweetness of fresh fruit. The combination of orange juice, soft-cooked apples, and strawberries gives this pudding a vibrant, fruity flavor, while the smooth texture is achieved through the delicate blend of cornstarch and stiffly beaten egg whites. The result is a light, airy dessert that feels as indulgent as it is refreshing. Perfectly chilled, this pudding makes for a delightful, summery treat that’s both elegant and satisfying.

Method:

  1. In a saucepan, bring the water, orange juice, and sugar to a boil.
  2. Mix the cornstarch with a little cold water until smooth, then stir it into the boiling mixture.
  3. Add the mashed apples and chopped strawberries, stirring well.
  4. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened.
  5. Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form, then gently fold them into the mixture.
  6. Pour into serving dishes and let it cool completely before serving.

The fresh strawberries will bring a lovely burst of sweetness and color to this pudding. 😊
