Strawberry Pistachio Mini Pavlovas

Print Recipe
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 1 hour
Drying Time 2 hours
Total Time 3 hours 10 minutes
Servings 6 servings

Ingredients

  • 2 large egg whites (about 75g), at room temperature
  • 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
  • Whipped cream, for topping
  • Sliced strawberries, for topping
  • Pistachio cream, for topping

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 225 F (110 C). Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • To the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk, add the egg whites and cream of tartar and beat on medium-high speed until foamy, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Slowly add the sugar (it takes about 2 minutes to add all the sugar). Turn off the mixer and scrape down the bowl.
  • Continue beating on high speed until thick and sticky (like a marshmallow) and holds a strong peak with a little curl at the tip, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Dollop 4 to 6 mounds of the meringue onto the prepared sheet pan, making a wide shallow nest in the center (these won't spread while baking so you can make whatever shape you want).
  • Bake until the meringues are no longer sticky, very light golden around bottom edges, and beginning to develop a matte finish, about 1 hour.
  • Turn off the oven and let the meringues dry out completely (oven door closed), about 2 hours.
  • To serve, top each meringue nest with whipped cream, strawberries, and pistachio cream.
