Strawberry Souffle

This recipe I found tonight is obviously not safe for people with egg allergies, but After some searching I found a recipe for vegan (egg free) meringue that should work awesome!

So the regular recipe goes like this

3 cups strawberries, process til smooth and add 1/4 cup sugar. Then in separate bowl whip 6 egg whites and 1/4 cup sugar until fluffy peaks form. Then mix with puree. Put into custard cups and bake 400 for 8-12 minutes til sides turn brown.....

For an egg free version Puree the strawberries by themselves. Set aside. In a new bowl mix
1 1/3 teaspoons agar powder (or 1 1/3 tablespoons agar flakes) mixed with 1/4 cup cold water
1/2 cup powdered egg replacer
3/4 cup cold water
1/2 cup sugar
4 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon pure lemon extract

Once mixed add pureed strawberries and bake in custard cups at 400 degrees for 8-12 minutes. Til sides are brown.


I found the egg less meringue recipe at this site which btw looks awesome for those of you with egg allergies!
