Use any fruit of your choice in this delicate creation that’s perfect for spoiling yourself when you have the luxury of a morning alone.
Tips on working with egg whites:
- When beating egg whites to form peaks, avoid plastic and wooden utensils and bowls, which can harbor fat particles that will ruin the fluffy structure of the whipped proteins. Metal is best
- Work with room temperature whites and equipment.
- A pinch of cream of tartar will help your whites achieve the desired stiffness.
- Don’t under-beat the whites, or these pancakes will turn out flat like crepes.
- The fresher the egg, the better. Liquid egg whites will not work well for this recipe.

- ¼ cup skim milk, warmed
