Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 g fresh raspberries
- 50 g granulated erythritol
- 240 ml heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon unsweetened gelatin powder
- 2 tablespoons cold water
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
In a small bowl, sprinkle the unsweetened gelatin powder over the cold water and let it sit for about 5 minutes to bloom.
Place the raspberries in a blender or food processor and puree until smooth. Pass the puree through a fine sieve to remove the seeds and discard the seeds.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the raspberry puree, granulated erythritol, and lemon juice. Stir until the erythritol is completely dissolved, then remove from heat.
Add the bloomed gelatin to the warm raspberry mixture and stir until completely dissolved. Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature.
In a separate bowl, beat the heavy cream with a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form.
Gently fold the cooled raspberry mixture into the whipped cream, ensuring not to deflate the cream. Add the vanilla extract and fold until well combined.
Pour the mousse into individual ramekins or dessert glasses. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until set.
Before serving, garnish with a few fresh raspberries or a sprig of mint, if desired.
