With Christmas and the holiday period fast approaching, we thought we would take a look at a dish that is no doubt a family and festive favourite. Let’s be honest, few desserts feel as festive and as unmistakably Australian as the humble pavlova.
That glossy shell, that marshmallowy centre, and that glorious pile of fresh fruit. Whilst the traditional version relies heavily on egg whites, home cooks all over the world have been proving for years that a fully plant-based pavlova is not only possible, but absolutely delicious.
So, to help you with your vegan summer baking, we’ve pulled together a collection of the best vegan pavlova recipes from both YouTube and TikTok. Whether you’re gearing up for Christmas lunch, a summer dinner party, or simply feel like conquering a dessert that wows, these videos will guide you, step by step, to make an incredible plant-based version.
Perfect for Vegans, Plant-Curious Bakers & Pavlova Skeptics
Even if you’ve tried vegan pavlova before and had a flop (we’ve all been there), we hope that these videos will help you get it right. Aquafaba can be temperamental, but once you learn what “stiff peaks” actually look like, how long to bake, and when to cool the pav, it becomes surprisingly simple.
And if you’re new to plant-based cooking altogether, this dessert is one of the most impressive ways to show how fun and inventive vegan food can be.
We hope these videos help and be sure to share your vegan creations with us this summer at @letsgoveganco.
