Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Egg whites
- 200 grams Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 250 ml Heavy cream
- 30 grams Powdered sugar
- 100 grams Fresh berries (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 100°C (210°F) and line two baking trays with parchment paper.
In a clean, grease-free mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to whip the egg whites until they form soft peaks.
Gradually add the granulated sugar, one tablespoon at a time, whisking continuously until the mixture forms stiff, glossy peaks.
Gently fold in the vanilla extract to distribute evenly.
Spoon or pipe the meringue mixture onto the prepared baking trays, creating small mounds or shapes of your choice, leaving space between them.
Bake in the preheated oven for 90 minutes, or until the meringues are dry to the touch and easily peel off the parchment paper.
Turn off the oven and allow the meringues to cool fully inside with the door slightly ajar.
When ready to serve, whip the heavy cream with the powdered sugar until soft peaks form.
Pair the cooled meringues with a dollop of whipped cream and garnish with fresh berries if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
