Gratin of Summer Berries Recipe

This is a wonderful dessert to make when fresh berries are at their peak. The fruit is baked under an eggy custard sauce called a “sabayon.”

Ingredients
1 pint strawberries, hulled and sliced
1 pint blueberries, about
1 pint raspberries
5 egg yolks
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup orange juice
2 tablespoons orange liqueur
1/2 cup sliced almonds
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 400F. Coat a 1 1/2-quart gratin or baking dish with cooking spray.
2. Combine berries in a large bowl. Transfer to baking dish.
3. Whisk egg yolks, sugar, orange juice and liqueur in a medium-size bowl that fits over a pot to make a double boiler. Place bowl over gently simmering water and cook, whisking constantly, until slightly thickened. Remove from heat and whisk 1 minute. Pour over fruit and sprinkle with almonds. Bake 5 to 10 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm, at room temperature or chilled. Serves 6.
