Amazing Peanut Brittle Meringue Roulade Recipe

Some of the best food comes when you least expect it! I was happily making some dough for my panettoni when I realised I had 4 egg whites left over. As ever I have a need not to waste anything so wondered what would become of the egg whites!

Top tip: If you have a peanut allergy or indeed any nut allergy use an alternative or leave the nuts out all together. Chocolate chips in the cream or flavoured cream would work equally as well.

Introduction

Some of the best food comes when you least expect it! I was happily making some dough for my panettoni when I realised I had 4 egg whites left over. As ever I have a need not to waste anything so wondered what would become of the egg whites! 

My thought turned to meringue as its nice and easy and I could find some other ingredients in the cupboard and fridge to make something interesting. So I decided to make a Meringue Roulade as I have double cream in the fridge and decided to pimp this up with some peanut brittle. I could have gone for roasted hazelnuts however I have a customer (my son) that doesn’t like hazelnuts so went for peanuts! I used salted peanuts as the salt adds an extra flavour into the mix. 

  • For the filling
    • 1/2 Pint Double Cream
    • 1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • For the Peanut Brittle
    • 200g Sugar
    • 75g Salted Peanuts
  • Not many ingredients to create the most amazing dessert!
