INGREDIENTS

  • Meringue

    • 🥚 6 egg whites
    • 🧂 1 pinch salt
    • 1 ½ teaspoons vinegar
    • 2 cups castor sugar or superfine sugar
    • 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
    • ½ cup unsweetened flaked coconut (Optional)

  • Toppings

    • 2 cups sweetened whipped cream
    • 🍓 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
    • 🥝 2 kiwifruit, peeled, halved lengthwise, and sliced
    • 🍑 1 fresh peach - peeled, pitted and sliced
    • ½ cup fresh blueberries

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 450°F (220°C). Prepare a 9 or 10-inch round glass dish by lining it with parchment paper.

2

In a large bowl, whisk egg whites and salt using an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar 1 tablespoon at a time, beating to stiff peaks. Fold in vinegar, vanilla extract, and coconut if using.

3

Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared dish. Place it in the oven and immediately reduce the temperature to 300°F (150°C). Bake for 40–50 minutes, or until the top is crisp and pale straw-colored.

4

Turn off the oven and leave the Pavlova inside to cool completely.

5

Once cooled, top the Pavlova with sweetened whipped cream. Arrange the strawberries, kiwis, peaches, and blueberries in concentric circles on top.
