Ingredients

• 4 large Egg whites
• 0.75 cup Granulated erythritol
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon Cream of tartar
• 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
• 2 tablespoons Powdered erythritol
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Mixed berries (such as strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
• 10 leaves Mint leaves (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form.

Step 3

Add the cream of tartar to the egg whites and continue to beat until stiff peaks form.

Step 4

Gradually add the granulated erythritol, one tablespoon at a time, beating well after each addition until the mixture is glossy and the erythritol is fully dissolved.

Step 5

Stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract gently.

Step 6

Spoon the meringue mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, forming a large circle about 8 inches in diameter. Create a slight dip in the center for the toppings.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 90 minutes or until the meringue is dry to the touch and easily lifts off the parchment paper. Turn off the oven and let the pavlova cool in the oven with the door slightly ajar.

Step 8

While the meringue cools, prepare the whipped cream by beating the heavy whipping cream, powdered erythritol, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract together in a bowl until soft peaks form.

Step 9

Once the pavlova is completely cool, transfer it to a serving platter.

Step 10

Top with the sugar-free whipped cream, spreading it evenly over the surface of the pavlova.

Step 11

Decorate with mixed berries and, if desired, garnish with mint leaves.

Step 12

Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving.
