Gluten-Free Pavlova with Strawberries That is Perfect for Passover
Pavlova, named after the Russian ballerina Anna Pavlova, is a meringue dessert filled with cream and topped with fruit. It's the perfect gluten-free dessert for Passover, the Jewish holiday during which wheat, rye, oats, barley, corn, soy, rice, and beans are forbidden. These dietary restrictions are what make gluten-free treats like meringues and coconut macaroons so popular during the holiday.
What this recipe lacks in gluten, it makes up for in sweetness. The simple mix of egg whites and sugar produces an incredibly tart taste. And while some recipes yield meringues with a hard, crispy edge and a soft interior, this bake creates a gooey consistency all the way through. Regardless of why you're going gluten-free, this pavlova is a prime dessert for anyone who wants an aesthetic treat with little effort!
