Orange and Peach Roulade
Read my review of this recipe.
Ingredients:
- 4 egg whites
- 1/2 cup sugar in the raw
- 1/2 cup flour
- Zest of 1 orange
- 3 tablespoons orange juice
- 1 cup fromage frais
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 peaches, pitted, peeled and thinly sliced
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Grease and line a 9×13 jelly roll pan.
Place the egg whites in a large, clean bowl and beat until they hold soft peaks. Gradually add the sugar. Fold in the flour, orange zest, and juice. Spoon the mixture into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the cake is firm and pale golden brown. Turn out onto parchment paper and roll it up loosely from one short side. Cool completely.
Mix the fromage frais with the honey. Unroll the cake and spread evenly with the mixture. Top with peaches, and then roll the cake back up.
Serves 6.

Substitutions:
Fromage frais is a fresh cheese that’s very low in fat and has the consistency of sour cream. It may also be called fromage blanc. It can be found in the speciality cheese case at some grocery stores, but if you can’t find it, good substitutes are quark or Greek yogurt.
