Preparation time: 30 minutes
Cooling time: 2-3 hours
Total time: 3-3.5 hours
Number of servings: 8

Ingredients:
- 300 g peaches (fresh or canned, well drained)
- 200 ml heavy cream
- 100 g sugar
- 3 eggs
- 1 packet of vanilla sugar
- 10 g gelatin (or 1.5 sheets of gelatin)
- 100 ml water
- A pinch of salt
- Cookies or a cake base for the bottom (optional)

Step by step:

1. Preparing the peaches: If using fresh peaches, wash them well, remove the pits, and cut them into small pieces. If opting for canned peaches, make sure to drain them well to avoid excess liquid.

2. Preparing the gelatin: In a small bowl, soak the gelatin in 100 ml of cold water for 5-10 minutes. Then, heat the mixture over a double boiler or in the microwave to dissolve completely, being careful not to boil.

3. The base of the bavarois: In another bowl, beat the eggs with the sugar and vanilla sugar until the mixture becomes creamy and light in color. Add the dissolved gelatin, mixing well to incorporate.

4. Whipping the cream: In another bowl, whip the heavy cream with a pinch of salt until it becomes firm, but do not whip too much to avoid turning it into butter.

5. Combining the ingredients: Gently fold the whipped cream into the egg and sugar mixture using a spatula, in a folding motion. Add the chopped peaches and mix gently to distribute them evenly.

6. Assembling the dessert: If you want a base for the bavarois, place a layer of cookies or a cake base in a springform pan. Pour the bavarois mixture over the base and level the surface.

7. Cooling: Cover the pan with plastic wrap and place the dessert in the refrigerator for at least 2-3 hours until it sets.

8. Serving: Finally, you can decorate the bavarois with slices of fresh peaches or a caramel sauce. A delicious option is to serve the dessert with a spoonful of Greek yogurt, which adds a touch of freshness.

Practical tips:
- You can also experiment with other fruits, such as mango or strawberries, to create a varied bavarois.
- If you prefer a stronger flavor, add a few drops of vanilla essence to the bavarois mixture.
- Make sure the cream is well chilled before whipping to achieve a firmer whipped cream.
- If you want a less sweet dessert, you can reduce the sugar amount by half.

This peach bavarois recipe is not only easy to make but also extremely refreshing, making it the perfect choice for a hot summer day. Enjoy every bite and savor an elegant yet simple dessert!

I had some peaches that I no longer liked because they were soft, so I peeled them and cut them into pieces. I put the firmer pieces in a small bowl and mixed the rest in a food processor to make a puree. Then I crushed 200 grams of biscuits, mixed them with 80 grams of roasted and ground hazelnuts (the recipe called for 50 hazelnuts and 50 almonds) and 150 grams of melted butter. I took a platter, placed the decoration I inherited from Angelique, put the ring from a detachable cake mold in anticipation of the moment when I would also have a ring like Marcela's through the kindness of a friend, a ring that I lined with baking paper, and in this whole mechanism, I placed the biscuit mixture and quickly put it in the fridge. I then soaked 17 grams of gelatin, that is, sheets, in a little puree over low heat, and then mixed it with the peach puree. I whipped 400 ml of liquid cream with a bit of sugar, I think about 5 tablespoons, unfortunately, I measured it by eye, and in this whipped cream, I started to gradually add the peach puree and then at the end, I added the pieces. I took the ring out of the fridge and poured the mixture on top, then put it back in the fridge. It was 4:30 PM, and I was a bit afraid it wouldn't set in time for dinner, but I was lucky, and in the end, I took the ring off and decorated it with slices of peaches, though I don't know much more. I think the ring was 28 cm in diameter. By the way, I think there's too much whipped cream; I would try to reduce it to half next time. Enjoy your meal!
