Raspberry Meringue Tart - cooking recipe

Ingredients

None None cooking oil spray
4 None slices day-old oat and honey bread
1/2 cup semi skimmed milk
2 tbsp butter
3 None large egg whites
4 tsp sugar, plus a 1/4 cup
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups frozen raspberries, thawed

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F. Spray 4 x 6 fl oz ovenproof dishes. Place dishes on a baking tray. Process bread to fine crumbs. Transfer to a large heatproof bowl. Bring milk and butter to a simmer in a medium saucepan (do not boil). Pour milk mixture over breadcrumbs. Let stand for 10 mins.
In a small bowl, whisk egg yolks with 4 tsp sugar and the vanilla. Add to breadcrumb mixture and stir to combine. Divide mixture among prepared dishes. Bake for 20 mins or until just set. Remove from oven.
Meanwhile, using an electric mixer, beat egg whites in a clean, dry, large bowl until soft peaks form. Add a 1/4 cup of sugar gradually and beat until sugar dissolves and mixture is thick. Place raspberries in a bowl and mash.
Spoon raspberries over the breadcrumb crust in the dishes. Top with egg white. Bake for 10 mins more or until golden. Stand 5 mins before serving.
