» Fair dinkum Aussie Pavlova
Experience the authentic taste of Fair Dinkum Aussie Pavlova with a crisp shell and marshmallowy center. Serves 16-20, perfect for parties or Christmas. Requires gellan gum and candy...
Ingredients
- Add 3/4 cup caster sugar, beating in between additions,until the sugar is all added and the meringue is smooth and has no graininess to it.
- Then beat in the vanilla. I don’t measure, but add it to taste..i would assume approx 1-2 tsp vanilla is sufficient.
- Cover a large flat baking sheet with non-stick parchment paper and turn your meringue onto the sheet, and spread into a round, slightly bigger than your springform pan.
- Place in the oven at 100c (NO HOTTER!) and bake .
- Put 3/4 cup AF in the mixer bowl with ½ tsp xanthum gum and whip to stiff peaks whilst the sugar syrup is cooking.
- Sugar syrup: Add 1 ½ cups of caster sugar to a DRY saucepan.
- Then add the ½ cup water and stir briskly. It will quickly thicken as the Gellan gum swells.
- Add some vanilla extract at this stage, mix it in, then turn off mixer.
- Take your springform pan with the parchment paper you prepared earlier. Turn out the mix, and spread it evenly across the springform pan, then put in fridge to set.
- At this point, its a good chance to lick the bowl and have a coffee!
- Meringue topping: Place ¾ cup Aquafaba into the mixer bowl with ½ tsp xanthum gum and turn on. Whip to stiff peaks.
- Then gradually add the 1 ½ cups of sugar until all is incorporated, then add vanilla.
- This pavlova will grow in size once in the oven, so make sure there is room on your oven sheet for expansion!
- Serve with whipped coconut cream with a dash of vanilla and a little sugar whipped in and topped with an assortment of fruit!
