Air Fryer Pavlova

Preparation Time: 20 minutes

Cooking Time: 1 hour 30 minutes

Servings: 8-10

Difficulty Level: Intermediate

Ingredients:

• 4 large egg whites, at room temperature
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon white vinegar
• 1 teaspoon cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup heavy cream
• Fresh fruits (berries, kiwi, passion fruit) for topping
• Mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

1. Preheat Air Fryer:
   • Preheat your air fryer to 250°F (120°C). Ensure the air fryer basket is clean.
2. Prepare Egg Whites:
   • In a large, clean, and dry bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
3. Gradually Add Sugar:
   • Gradually add the sugar, one tablespoon at a time, while continuing to beat the egg whites. Beat until glossy and stiff peaks form.
4. Add Vinegar and Cornstarch:
   • Gently fold in the white vinegar, cornstarch, and vanilla extract. Be careful not to deflate the egg whites.
5. Form the Pavlova:
   • Spoon the pavlova mixture onto a parchment paper-lined air fryer basket, creating a well in the center for the toppings.
6. Air Fry:
   • Place the basket in the preheated air fryer and bake for 1 hour 30 minutes or until the pavlova is crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. The pavlova should easily lift off the parchment paper.
7. Cool:
   • Allow the pavlova to cool completely before transferring it to a serving plate.
8. Whip the Cream:
   • In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
9. Assemble:
   • Spoon the whipped cream into the well of the pavlova. Top with fresh fruits of your choice.
10. Garnish:
    • Garnish with mint leaves if desired.
11. Serve:
    • Slice and serve your air fryer pavlova immediately.
