Vegan pavlova
Today in Norway it's the national day ❤ At home we have the tradition of making pavlovas on this day. Pavlova is a meringue and then cream and then fruits. On the national day we like to have berries on it to get the colors of the flag. But today I made it in a vegan version and also a lighter version. Less fat and less sugar and completely plant based. And believe me if you can, that was delicious 😋 So to make the vegan meringue you need to use aquafaba. Aquafaba is the cooking water that comes out of beans and peas. In this case I took a can of chickpeas and used the aquafaba of the box. ( I used the chickpeas to make vegan chicken but that is another story 😉) So what do you do with the aquafaba ? You whisk it until you get your meringue. Like with white of your eggs ? Yes, exactly like it. Here is the recipe : Aquafaba from 1 can of chickpeas ( don't throw the chickpeas, use it to make some hummus of curry of whatever ) 2 tbsp maizena 4
