Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large egg whites (120 g)

  • 1 cup superfine sugar (200 g)

  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch (3 g)

  • 1 teaspoon white vinegar (5 ml)

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (5 ml)

  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (15 g)

  • 1 cup fresh pineapple, diced (165 g)

  • 3–4 passionfruits

  • Fresh mint leaves, optional


Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 250°F (120°C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper and draw an 8–9-inch circle.

  • Beat the egg whites in a clean bowl until foamy and soft peaks form.

  • Gradually add the superfine sugar, beating until the meringue becomes thick, glossy, and forms stiff peaks.

  • Gently fold in the cornstarch, white vinegar, and vanilla extract.

  • Spoon the meringue onto the prepared tray and shape it into a round pavlova with a shallow center.

  • Reduce the oven temperature to 225°F (110°C) and bake for approximately 90 minutes until the outside feels dry and crisp.

  • Turn off the oven and leave the pavlova inside until completely cool.

  • Beat the heavy whipping cream with powdered sugar until fluffy and soft to medium peaks form.

  • Dice the pineapple and scoop the passionfruit pulp into a bowl.

  • Transfer the cooled pavlova to a serving plate and spread the whipped cream over the center.

  • Top with diced pineapple and passionfruit pulp.

  • Garnish with fresh mint leaves and serve immediately.
