Schaumrollen (Meringue Cream Horns)
One serving has 369 kcal and 5 g protein, and at least a fifth of a woman's daily need of selenium (26%). Ready in 65 minutes.
- Preparation: 45 min
- Cooking: 20 min
- Makes: 1 serving (99.5 g)
- Difficulty: Hard
- Diets: Vegetarian
- Contains: dairy, egg, gluten
Ingredients
- 40 g Puff pastry
- 1 g Butter, unsalted (for the moulds)
- 3 g Egg yolk (for brushing)
- 15 g Egg whites
- 30 g Sugar
- 8 g Water
- 0.5 g Lemon juice
- 2 g Icing sugar
Method
- Thaw the puff pastry, roll it out 2-3 mm thick and cut it into long strips about 2 cm wide. Heat the oven to 200 °C and lightly butter some metal cream-horn moulds.
- Starting at the pointed end, wind a strip around each mould, overlapping each turn by about a third. Set them seam side down on a tray lined with baking paper and brush with the beaten egg yolk.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes until puffed and golden. Twist the moulds out while the pastry is still warm and leave the horns to cool.
- For the meringue, boil the sugar and water in a small pan for about 5 minutes until the syrup reaches 118 °C (a drop pressed between wet fingers forms a soft ball). Meanwhile whisk the egg whites with the lemon juice to soft peaks.
- With the mixer running at high speed, pour the hot syrup into the whites in a thin stream, then keep whisking for 5-8 minutes until the meringue is thick, glossy and cool.
- Pipe the meringue into the cooled horns, dust with icing sugar and eat the same day, while the pastry is crisp.
