4 blood oranges
1 tablespoon of butter
1/4 cup of wheat flour (30g)
1/4 cup of sugar (45g)
1/2 cup of heavy cream (120ml), 2 egg yolks (separated)
Preheat the oven to 250°C (very hot)
Wash and carefully cut a thin slice from the bottom of each orange, so they can sit flat
Cut another slice at the top and pass the oranges through an electric juicer, being careful not to damage the peel
Strain the juice, reserving 1 cup
Reserve the oranges
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over high heat
Add the wheat flour and stir for 1 minute with a wooden spoon
Join the sugar, orange juice reserved and heavy cream and cook, stirring constantly, until it thickens (about 10 minutes)
In a small bowl, pour some of the cream and add the egg yolks
Mix well, then return to the saucepan and cook, stirring constantly, until it thickens again
Remove from heat, transfer to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap to prevent a film from forming, and let cool
In a stand mixer, beat the whites until stiff peaks form
Add to the orange cream reserved and mix delicately
Distribute the cream among the reserved orange shells and bake in a preheated oven on a baking sheet until puffed and golden (7 minutes)
