Equipment
- Baking sheet
- Electric mixer or whisk
- Clean tea towel
- Parchment paper
- Baking sheet
Ingredients
- 80 g wheat flour Type 405
- 40 g strength flour
- 4 medium-sized eggs
- 1 pinch of salt
- 125 g sugar
- 25 g melted butter
- 250 g blueberries
- 6 leaves gelatin
- 100 ml lemon juice
- Zest of 1 organic lemon
- 200 g curd (or Greek yogurt)
- 100 g powdered sugar
- 550 g whipping cream
- 250 g blueberries (for decoration)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 200°C (180°C fan) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, mix and sieve the wheat and strength flour.
- Separate the eggs into whites in one bowl and yolks in another.
- Beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form and gradually add sugar.
- Fold in the yolks, followed by the flour mixture in two parts, then stir in melted butter.
- Spread the batter evenly on the baking sheet and bake for 10–15 minutes until golden.
- Flip the baked biscuit onto a powdered sugar-dusted tea towel and roll it tightly while warm, then let it cool completely.
- Rinse and dry the blueberries for filling, then soak the gelatin leaves in cold water.
- Warm the lemon juice, dissolve the gelatin in it, and let it cool slightly.
- In a bowl, combine curd, powdered sugar, and lemon zest. Whip the cream until soft peaks form, then fold it into the curd mixture.
- Add the cooled gelatin-lemon mixture and stir well.
- Unroll the cooled biscuit, spread the cream evenly, and scatter half of the blueberries on top.
- Roll the biscuit back up carefully and place it seam-side down on a platter, decorating with remaining blueberries and powdered sugar.
- For extra flavor, macerate the blueberries in lemon juice and sugar before adding them to the cream.
- Store leftover Creamy Blueberry Delight in the fridge for up to 2 days, or freeze individual slices for a month.
- You can substitute ingredients based on availability; for example, use all-purpose flour instead of Type 405 and replace gelatin with agar-agar for a vegetarian option.
- Presentation can be enhanced with mint garnishes or a drizzle of honey over the top for extra flair!
