Ingredients
Egg, whole, raw
3 medium, raw, separated
Caster Sugar
100 g
Hazelnuts
50 g
Gluten free plain white flour
25 g
Baking powder
1 teaspoon(s), level
Unsweetened almond drink
15 ml, (or any other milk)
Low Fat Ice Cream
300 g
Frozen Mixed Berries
400 g, defrosted slightly
Icing Sugar
1½ teaspoon(s), level, plus extra for dusting
Lemon Juice, Fresh
1 tablespoon(s)
Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 180°C, fan 160°C, gas mark 4. Line a 33cm x 23cm baking tin with baking paper.
2
Using an electric whisk, beat the egg yolks with 80g of the caster sugar for 3-4 minutes, until pale and thickened. Whisk in the hazelnuts, flour and baking powder. Stir in the milk. In a clean bowl, whisk the egg whites until stiff peaks form, then gently fold them into the cake mixture.
3
Pour the mixture into the tin and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the sponge springs back when touched gently. Remove from the oven and cool in the tin. Let the ice cream soften out of the freezer for 5-10 minutes. Dust a sheet of baking paper with the reserved caster sugar and turn the sponge onto it.
4
Whizz 100g of the fruit with the icing sugar and lemon juice to make a coulis. Add a little water if it is too thick.
5
Peel the lining paper from the sponge and spread the ice cream over, leaving a 2cm border. Scatter 150g of the summer fruits over, then carefully roll the sponge. Serve with the coulis, the remaining berries and a dusting of icing sugar.
