- 60 ml milk
- pinch of vanilla sugar
- 5 egg whites
- 40 g granulated sugar
- 3 egg yolks

Preheat the oven to 180°C. Heat the butter, icing sugar, milk and vanilla sugar in an ovenproof dish. Mix the 5 egg whites with the granulated sugar and whisk until stiff. Quickly fold in the egg yolks, flour and lemon zest. Threads of yolk should still be visible.

Quick and easy, but very delicious
