Allergens egg, peanuts
Peanut butter baba de camelo (Portuguese mousse)
A light mousse of stiffly beaten egg whites with a hint of peanut.
Ingredients
- 5 eggs (250 g / 9 oz) — use pasteurized eggs: the recipe isn't cooked
- 2 tbsp powdered peanut butter (30 g / 1 oz)
- 2 tbsp sugar (24 g / ¾ oz) — no added sugar: 2 tbsp xylitol (20 g)
In the no-added-sugar version, eating too much erythritol or xylitol can have a laxative effect. Keep it away from dogs: xylitol is toxic to them.
Method
- Separate the yolks from the whites. Whip the whites to very stiff peaks.
- In a bowl, combine the yolks with the powdered peanut butter and sugar and mix well.
The full method (4 steps), Rico's tip, the variations and storage are in the ebook “Desserts”. The English edition is coming soon.
