Citrus gratin is an idea from the South, where citrus fruits and almonds naturally come together. Here we mix grapefruit and orange under a light cream with almond powder, then broil for 5 minutes to caramelize the brown sugar. A dessert that is both fresh and indulgent.

Lighter than a traditional sweet gratin, faster than long-baked desserts. Citrus segments stay crisp beneath the almond cream, which caramelizes in just 5 minutes under the broiler. Quick warm dessert straight from the oven.
