Baked Gelato Bomb with Berries Recipe
This exclusive recipe will guide you in preparing a delicious baked gelato bomb with mixed berries, a traditional dessert reinterpreted in a modern and elegant way. The strawberry gelato, mixed berries, and soft meringue will create an irresistible contrast of taste and color.
Ingredients
- 400 g Ice Cream Strawberry
- 100 g Berries Mixed
- 100 g Sugar
- 1 Sponge Cake Ready-made
- 3 Egg Whites
- to taste Salt
Instructions
- Allow the gelato to soften slightly at room temperature, then transfer it to a semicircle mold or the mold of your choice, leveling it well. Place in the freezer for at least 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, blend the berries with two tablespoons of sugar and a glass of water, then strain the resulting mixture with a sieve.
- Cut out a disc from the sponge cake the size of the base of the mold and soak it with the prepared berry sauce, making sure it soaks well.
- Whip the egg whites to stiff peaks with the remaining sugar and a pinch of salt, using an electric whisk until you get a soft but firm meringue.
- Preheat the oven to 250 degrees Celsius.
- Place the sponge cake disc on a baking tray, place the gelato on top, and completely cover with the whipped meringue, creating a uniform layer.
- Bake for about 3-4 minutes, just enough time to lightly brown the meringue without melting the gelato.
- Serve the baked gelato bomb immediately, accompanied by the remaining berry sauce.
Notes
For an original twist to the recipe, add a final sprinkle of chopped pistachios on the meringue before baking to add crunchiness and a delightful contrast in both flavor and color.
