Ingredients
- 300 grams fresh raspberries
- 200 grams low-fat Greek yogurt
- 2 large egg whites
- 50 grams granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin
- 2 tablespoons cold water
- 10 leaves mint leaves
Directions
Step 1
Start by preparing the raspberries. Set aside a few raspberries for garnish if desired, and blend the rest until smooth. If you prefer a seedless mousse, strain the puree through a fine sieve and discard the seeds.
Step 2
In a small bowl, combine the unflavored gelatin with cold water and let it bloom for approximately 5 minutes.
Step 3
In a saucepan, add the raspberry puree and gently warm it over low heat. Stir in the bloomed gelatin and mix until it's completely dissolved. Remove from heat and allow it to cool slightly while you prepare the other components.
Step 4
In a separate mixing bowl, whisk the egg whites until foamy. Gradually add the granulated sugar while continuing to whisk until the egg whites reach soft peaks.
Step 5
Fold the cooled raspberry mixture into the egg whites gently to maintain the airiness. Next, fold in the low-fat Greek yogurt and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
Step 6
Divide the mixture evenly among serving glasses or bowls. Refrigerate the mousse for at least 2 hours to allow it to set.
Step 7
Before serving, garnish with the reserved raspberries and fresh mint leaves. Serve chilled and enjoy your low-fat raspberry mousse.
