Recipe Summary
Ingredients
Directions
Make Ahead
The poached prunes and pears in rosé syrup can be refrigerated overnight. Rewarm gently before proceeding. The baked almond soufflés can stand in their ramekins at room temperature for up to 2 hours before unmolding.
Suggested Pairing
The toasted-almond flavor makes these soufflés just the right match for a sweet white Bordeaux from Barsac, the lesser-known sister region of Sauternes.
