Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Fresh orange juice
- 2 Egg whites
- 3 tablespoons Sugar substitute (granulated, diabetes-friendly)
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoons Grated orange zest
Instructions
1. In a small saucepan, heat the fresh orange juice over medium heat until it comes just to a simmer. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
2. In a clean, dry mixing bowl, use an electric hand mixer or stand mixer to beat the egg whites until soft peaks form.
3. Gradually add the sugar substitute to the egg whites, one tablespoon at a time, while continuing to beat until stiff peaks form.
4. Gently fold the cooled orange juice into the beaten egg whites using a spatula. Take care to combine the mixture without deflating the egg whites.
5. Add the vanilla extract and grated orange zest, and fold gently to distribute evenly.
6. Divide the mixture evenly into four small serving glasses or bowls.
7. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to set before serving.
8. Serve cold as a refreshing, diabetic-friendly dessert option. Optionally, garnish with a small slice of orange or a sprinkling of orange zest.
