Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 10 ounces Italian prune plums
  • 1 1/2 cups Stock Syrup
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 3 medium egg whites
  • Scant 1/2 cup superfine sugar
  • Scant 1 cup confectioners’ sugar, sifted

Directions

Using a small knife, remove the pits from plums without cutting plums entirely in half. Place plums in a medium heatproof bowl. Bring stock syrup and bay leaves to a boil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Immediately pour syrup over plums and let cool completely.

Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Line a baking sheet with a nonstick baking mat or parchment paper; set aside.

In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat egg whites until soft peaks form. With the mixer on low, slowly add superfine sugar; increase speed and continue whisking until firm peaks form. Add confectioners’ sugar and beat until meringue is smooth and shiny and stiff peaks form, 6 to 8 minutes.

Drain plums and pat dry with paper towels, removing as much syrup as possible. Gently fold plums into meringue mixture.

Using two large spoons, scoop one-quarter of the meringue mixture and pass it between both spoons to form a rounded oval shape; transfer to prepared baking sheet. Repeat process with remaining meringue. Transfer to oven and bake for 2 hours.

Cool meringues slightly on baking sheet; carefully transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely in a dry place before serving.

                I have made this recipe several times.  I have used sliced,fresh strawberries and most recently used diced peaches (with the skin left on).  They are so easy and delicious.  I love making Martha's recipes as they always turn out beautifully.  BTW, I drained  the fruit and then pressed it between several sheets of paper towels.
