Sometimes we have time to create luscious desserts from scratch, but sometimes we do not! If you are interested in a quick and easy dessert for your family (or even your guests!) that only takes minutes to prepare, Good Morning Honey can help! Try this Meringue Dessert with Blueberry Honey.
For this recipe, we are starting with a store-bought base. If you have some extra time and want to get fancy, you can make your own meringues or angel food cake. We think vanilla meringues are the best complement to our pure and perfectly sweet honey, but angel food cake would also be delicious.
Since this recipe calls for fruit, we recommend our blueberry liquid honey for an extra punch of flavour. This honey has a bold, delicious, and fruity taste. How do we make it taste like blueberries without adding blueberry flavouring to it? The bees of course! They use the nectar from the blueberry flower to produce this bold honey that is 100% naturally flavoured.
If you prefer a more neutral complement, our pure liquid honey is always an excellent choice too.
Let’s get to the “recipe”!
Ingredients:
- Store-bought package of meringues (or an angel food cake)
- 1-2 cups mixed berries like strawberries, blueberries, and blackberries, or other fruit if you prefer
- 1-2 tbsp GMH blueberry or pure liquid honey, plus a little extra for drizzling
- Fresh mint garnish
Instructions:
There’s really no way to mess this up! The suggested amounts of ingredients are very general, because it’s just a matter of what ratio of fruit to honey to meringues sounds good to you.
- Put your meringues (or cake) on a plate and set aside
- In a medium sized bowl, gently mix your fruit and honey with a spoon until it is well-coated
- Spoon the honey-covered berries over your base of meringues or cake
- Drizzle more honey over the whole plate
- Add fresh mint leaves as a simple but pretty garnish
And there you have it, a beautiful and delicious dessert with almost zero prep time and no added processed sugar! These taste delicious on their own, but even better with a glass of homemade iced tea! GMH honey is incredibly healthy and includes enzymes, vitamins, and minerals. Our Alberta-made honey is pure, unpasteurized, and unfiltered, so you can be sure to get all these benefits when you eat it. You can feel good about including it as a sweetener in any dessert you make for an extra little nutritional boost.
