This is not a typical Pavlova as I know bit , but is a perfectly acceptable dessert dish. I used Xylitol as the sugar substitute.
Set oven at 150 C.
4 large egg whites
3/4 cup of Xylitol
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
1 teaspoon of vinegar.
Place egg whites in clean TMX bowl with Butterfly
Set time for 4 minutes, and beat at speed 4.until egg whites are stiff. ( mine took 3 minutes)
Gradually add Xylitol while beating, continue beating until glossy.
Add vanilla and vinegar in last few seconds of beating.
Place meringue on to a pizza dish covered with foil. (20 cm.) it will spread a little.
Bake for 40 minutes.
Let cool in oven.
Notes
It will brown slightly but not form a crisp crust.
Tastes better than its looks.
Will make again and take photo.
Makes 4 serves.
Note, next time I make this, I am going to add a teaspoon of corn flour.

This looks great. As I've been totally off of sugar since Jan, it will make a wonderful dessert for me. :)

Beware
If you have a pet dog please be very careful as Xylitol is deadly if eaten by dogs and other animals.
Please take care as only a small amount is deadly.

soBlessed, I made this for visitors who are also off sugar. I find it very difficult to serve a nice desert. They really liked this. We ate it with strawberries soaked in vanilla.
Bootobethin , I didn't know this . Fortunately we don't have dogs and the chooks certainly won't be getting any.
Note, next time I make this, I am going to add a teaspoon of corn flour.

Yes it is a little known fact that Xylitol is so toxic to dogs.
Most don't survive and it is an unpleasant way to die.
I try and tell as many people as I can as it is in so many products sweeteners, toothpastes diet foods etc. and accidental poisoning is so easy.

That's rather Scarey.
