HEAVEN ON EARTH
Yield: 8 Servings
6 lg Cooking apples; peeled
- cored and quartered
1/2 Lemon; grated rind and juice
- for the apples
2 oz Sugar; for the apples
4 Ripe pears; peeled
- cored and quartered
2 ts Mixed spice
1 Lemon; grated rind and juice
- for the pears
1 Sponge cake
Butter
6 Egg whites
12 oz Caster sugar
Preheat the oven to 375 oF / 190 oC.
Place the quartered apples in an ovenproof dish, add lemon juice and
grated rind, and sprinkle the sugar over the apples.
Cover the apples with buttered greaseproof paper.
Bake until the apples soften but before they begin to break up (about
35 minutes).
Turn the oven down to 275 oF/140 oC.
Add the quartered pears to the dish with the apples. Add the lemon
rind and juice, and spice. Mix together gently.
Slice the cake, and butter generously. Cut into cubes and cover the
fruit with the cake, butter side up.
Brown slightly under the grill.
Whisk the egg whites until they begin to stiffen. Continue whisking,
adding the caster sugar approximately 1 tb at a time, until you have
about half the sugar left. Fold in the remainder and pile on to the
fruit and cake, peaking the meringue with a fork.
Bake in the oven for about 25 minutes or until the meringue has set.
Serve hot or cold with pouring cream.
