Grilled Seasonal Stone Fruit Milk Cake — Ooni USA

This fluffy, mouth-wateringly good cake is topped with roasted stone fruit, and doubles as  a shocking centerpiece. Created by UK recipe creator and photographer, Suze Morrison (gourmetglow), this cake is soaked in candy milk which makes every slice extremely moist, but mild and ethereal. The plums are roasted till charred and juicy, making them the proper topping on this vacation stunner. 

We consider this dessert as a cross between an angel meals cake and a tres leches cake, which supplies it the very best of texture and style. Whipped eggs give the cake a beautiful airiness that helps it stand up similar to angel meals cake. Just like tres leches, this cake is cooked till golden brown, then lined in a mix of evaporated, condensed and complete milk, and left to relaxation till it’s fully soaked by means of..  

In fact, this cake wouldn’t be full with out roasted fruit – we’ve chosen winter plums right here, however any seasonal stone fruit will work simply tremendous. The fruit is cooked in a forged iron skillet to make it splendidly blistered, charred and additional juicy. Professional tip: Suze takes the leftover juice and drizzles it over the cake, much like a fire-roasted coulis – a sauce produced from fruit or greens.
