Ingredients
- 4 Egg whites
- 100 grams Powdered sugar
- 2 tsp Cornstarch
- 1 tsp Vinegar (or wine vinegar)
- 2 tbsp Granulated sugar
- 1 few drops Vanilla oil
- 1/2 pack Heavy cream
- 1 Your favorite fruit (strawberries, kiwis, peaches, bananas, etc)
Method
- Preheat the oven to 160C.
- In the meantime, prepare the meringue.
- Put the egg whites in a bowl and beat with an electric mixer.
- When all the liquid turns to foam, add half of the powdered sugar and continue to beat.
- Gradually add the remaining powdered sugar a little at a time and beat until stiff peaks form.
- Once it becomes a proper meringue, gently fold in the cornstarch, vinegar, granulated sugar, and vanilla oil.
- Shape the meringue into a round cake atop a baking sheet.
- It will deflate about 2 cm when baking, so adjust the height accordingly.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 130C, then bake on the lowest rack for about 75 minutes.
- Once baked, keep it in the oven to cool.
- Once completely cooled, coat with whipped heavy cream and top with your choice of fruit.
- The meringue is sweet, so you don't need to add any sugar to the heavy cream!
- This is a cross-section.
- The inside is fluffy, like a marshmallow, and the outside is crispy and has a caramel flavor.
- It's best with some sour fruit.
- It's also great with bananas and kiwis.
