Ingredients
- 4 large egg at room temperature, white
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice or white vinegar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon corn starch or arrowroot flour
- 1 oz coconut cream whipped, for topping, canned
- fresh berries for topping
- mint for garnish, leaves
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 200ºF and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Using a hand mixer beat egg whites on medium speed in a medium mixing bowl until soft peaks form, about 2 minutes.
- With mixer on, gradually add sugar, turning speed up to high. Beat for 3-5 minutes until stiff peaks form.
- Add lemon juice, vanilla and cornstarch or arrowroot powder and gently fold in with a spatula.
- Pour mixture onto parchment paper and shape into roughly an 8 or 9-inch wide circle, flattening the top and smoothing the sides.
- Bake for about 90 minutes, avoiding opening the oven door as much as possible.
- Turn off oven and allow pavlova to cool completely in the oven, about 1 hour.
- Once cool, top with coconut whip cream, fresh berries and mint leaves. Slice and serve immediately!

Notes
- Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight sealed container at room temperature for 1-2 days. Try to keep it in a dry storage place as this sweet treat is incredibly sensitive to temperatures. I don't recommend storing the pavlova in the fridge as it will become soggy.
