Description
A light and airy dessert topped with coconut cream and fresh fruits.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large egg whites (at room temperature)

- ½ teaspoon vanilla
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch or arrowroot flour
- 1 15 oz can coconut cream (whipped, for topping)
- Fresh berries (for topping)

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 200ºF and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Using a hand mixer beat egg whites on medium speed in a medium mixing bowl until soft peaks form, about 2 minutes.
- With mixer on, gradually add sugar, turning speed up to high. Beat for 3-5 minutes until stiff peaks form.
- Add lemon juice, vanilla and cornstarch or arrowroot powder and gently fold in with a spatula.
- Pour mixture onto parchment paper and shape into roughly an 8 or 9-inch wide circle, flattening the top and smoothing the sides.
