Chef’s Notes:

  • This is something that should be eaten within a few hours. If not the humidity will make the meringue chewy and sticky.
  • You can choose to dip the bottom (or top) in melted chocolate, and granulated sugar. The recipe analysis does not include the additional toppings.

Mini Pavlovas

Ingredients

3
egg whites
¼ cup
sugar, granulated
¼ cup
corn syrup, light
4 tbsp
water
1 tsp
lemon juice
1 tsp
vanilla extract

Directions

  1. In a sauce pan, combine sugar, corn syrup and water. Bring to a boil and dissolve sugar. Remove from heat.
  2. Using a mixer, beat the egg whites on high, until they are foamy. Lower the speed and trickle in the syrup. Add the lemon juice and vanilla. *Do not let syrup touch the whip or side of bowl as this will create little beads in the egg white.*
  3. Keep whipping on high until you have reached a stiff peek. You can choose to use a spoon and add dollops on a parchment paper-layered baking sheet, or a piping bag and tip to create ridges.
  4. Bake at 200 degrees F for one hour. *Do not open the oven door as this will deflate the meringue* Check after one hour and bake for another 45 minutes. They should be a light golden colour.
