How to Make Brown Sugar Pavlovas

  1. Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large, grease-free bowl, beat 4 large egg whites with an electric mixer until stiff, glossy peaks form.
  3. Gradually add 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, while continuing to beat on medium-high speed until stiff and glossy meringue forms (about 5-7 minutes).
  4. Gently fold in 2 tablespoons cornstarch and 1 teaspoon white vinegar.
  5. Divide the meringue mixture into 4 equal portions, or one large portion depending on your desired size.
  6. Spoon the meringue onto the prepared baking sheet, shaping each into a round (approximately 4 inches in diameter).
  7. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the pavlovas are lightly golden and crisp.
  8. Turn off the oven and leave the pavlovas inside with the door slightly ajar to cool completely (about 1-2 hours).
  9. Carefully remove the pavlovas from the parchment paper.
  10. Top with 1/2 cup unsweetened Greek yogurt and 1/2 cup fresh raspberries per pavlova.
  11. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons redcurrant jelly (or your preferred glaze).
  12. Garnish with fresh geranium leaves (optional) and serve immediately.
