Ingredients

Skim milk

1 cup(s), (250ml)

Caster sugar

2 tbs

Semolina

90 g

Cornflour

1 tbs

Vanilla yoghurt, 99% fat-free, no added sugar

125 g

Egg white

3 medium

Cherries

240 g, fresh or thawed from frozen

Flaked almonds

2 tbs

Instructions

  1. Place milk and sugar in a medium saucepan over high heat and bring almost to the boil. Simmer, stirring, for 1-2 minutes or until sugar has dissolved. Add semolina in thin steady stream, whisking constantly (see note). Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring, for 1-2 minutes or until thickened and smooth. Whisk in cornflour. Transfer to a large bowl. Whisk in yoghurt.
  2. Whisk egg whites in a medium bowl until frothy. Add to semolina mixture and whisk until combined. Place cherries in a single layer over base of a non-stick silicon loaf tin and pour semolina mixture on top. Sprinkle with almonds.
  3. Microwave on Medium (60%) for 7 minutes or until puffed and set. Set loaf aside in tin until cooled.

Notes

TIPS: If using thawed frozen cherries, it’s important to pat them dry with paper towel. Add the semolina in a very slow flow while whisking constantly or you will end up with lumps. Add ½ teaspoon vanilla extract with milk in Step 1 or swap almonds for pistachios (chopped).
