    Cooking Times

    The cooking time for your meringue will depend on whether you choose to cook it as little mini meringues or as one whole pavlova.

    Mini Meringues

    • Preheat oven to 150 degrees celsius (fan-forced).
    • Line baking trays with baking paper.
    • Place 2-3 tablespoons of mixture onto the tray. Hollow out the middle slightly with a spoon (this is where you will add your filling later).
    • Repeat with remaining mixture.
    • Reduce oven temperature to 120 degrees.
    • Bake mini meringues for 55 minutes. Switch off the oven and keep the door closed until the temperature has cooled completely.

    Whole Pavlova

    • Preheat oven to 120 degrees celsius (fan-forced).
    • Pour the mixture onto an oven tray covered with foil. Bake for exactly 1 hour and 20 minutes.
    • Turn oven off and allow the pavlova to cool completely.
    • Decorate with whipped cream and berries.

    FAQ

    Do I really need to use a clean and dry Thermomix bowl?

    Yes this is essential for milling the sugar as well as for whipping the egg whites and cream of tartar.

    What happens if my egg whites are cold?

    The quickest and easiest way to whip egg whites is when they are at room temperature. Try to remove them from the fridge at least an hour before using.

    What can I make with my meringue?

    The options are endless!!! Lemon meringue pie, pavlova, Christmas mini wreaths and more!

    How long will my baked meringues last?

    Meringues baked without any filling will last for up to 3 weeks in an airtight container at room temperature.

      Hi Can this be pre-made and then placed on the tray and baked?

      Thinking of mixing them up at home and cooking them at school with my class.

      Hi,
      after step 3 is the thermomix temp suppose to stay at 50 degrees?
      Doesn’t say temp in step 4 so I kept as it was and my end result holds but no peaks

        Hi Ange, yes it should stay at 50 degrees (I've just updated the recipe card to make it clearer). I think it sounds like yours might have needed a bit longer whipping time!

        Hi Lisa, the cooking time depends on whether you're using the meringue to make one large dessert (ie. pavlova/lemon meringue pie) or mini desserts. Here's a couple of recipes that will help you with the cooking times and temps. xx
