Ingredients
Mini Pavlovas
- 4 large egg whites room temperature
- 1 cup caster sugar (superfine sugar)
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 2 teaspoons white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
Lemon Whipped Cream
- 1 cup whipping cream
- 1 tablespoon caster sugar (superfine sugar)
- 4 teaspoons lemon juice
- 2 teaspoon lemon zest
Vanilla-Rhubarb Compote
- 3 cups rhubarb chopped
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1/2 vanilla bean split and seeded
Instructions
For the Pavlova
- Preheat oven to 300º F.
- Whisk egg whites on medium-high until soft peaks form. With mixer running, slowly add sugar, a little at a time. Whisk until stiff, glossy peaks form (as pictured at the top of the post). Add cornstarch, vinegar and vanilla. Whisk until combined.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a 1/2 cup measuring cup, spoon mounds of the meringue onto the prepared baking sheet, smoothing it out and forming it into an egg or other desired shape.
- Place in oven and lower heat to 250º F. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until the outside is dry to the touch. Shut off heat and allow to cool completely in the oven.
- Once cool, store in an airtight container until using.
- To serve: Smack the top with a spoon, fill with Lemon Whipped Cream and Vanilla-Rhubarb Compote.
For the Lemon Whipped Cream
- Whip cream to soft peaks.
- Add sugar, lemon juice and lemon zest.
- Whip just until stiff peaks form.
- Serve immediately.
For the Vanilla-Rhubarb Compote
- Place rhubarb and sugar in a medium-sized saucepan. Let sit, stirring occasionally, until sugar has mostly dissolved and rhubarb has started releasing its juices.
- Add vanilla bean and seeds. Bring mixture to a boil over medium heat. Lower heat and keep mixture at a simmer, stirring often, until rhubarb has softened but the mixture is still chunky.
- Serve warm or make ahead and serve cold from the refrigerator.
