Ingredients
- 6 large egg whites, at room temperature
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 tsp white vinegar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 cup sliced strawberries
- 1/2 cup raspberries
- 1/2 cup blueberries
- 1 tbsp powdered sugar
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 300°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and draw an 8-inch circle in the center.
- In a large clean bowl, whisk the egg whites until they form stiff peaks. Gradually add in the sugar, a tablespoon at a time, until the mixture is glossy.
- Add in the vinegar and vanilla extract and gently fold into the egg white mixture.
- Spoon the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, using the circle as a guide. Use the back of the spoon to make a well in the center of the mixture.
- Bake for 1 hour or until the pavlova is crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. Turn off the oven and allow the pavlova to cool completely in the oven.
- In a small bowl, whisk the heavy cream until it forms soft peaks. Spoon the whipped cream into the center of the pavlova.
- Arrange the sliced strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries on top of the cream.
- In a small saucepan, heat the powdered sugar and lemon juice until the sugar dissolves, then add in the remaining berries. Cook for 5-7 minutes or until the sauce has thickened.
- Serve the sauce over the pavlova.
