Time 4h15m

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 large egg whites
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 1/2 teaspoons white or cider vinegar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pint sorbet, ice cream, or frozen yogurt, softened, for serving
Sliced peaches or toasted sliced almonds, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 225 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. With an electric mixer, beat egg whites, cream of tartar, and salt in a large bowl until soft peaks form. With mixer running, add 3/4 cup sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating until stiff peaks form.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together remaining 2 tablespoons sugar and the cornstarch; beat into egg-white mixture. Beat in vinegar and vanilla.
  • Drop dollops of mixture in a line down center of prepared baking sheet. With a flexible spatula or a wet spoon, spread into a 6-by-14-inch rectangle. Make a 1-inch-deep well down the center, leaving a 1-inch-thick border around edges.
  • Bake 2 hours; turn off oven, and let stand (in oven) for 2 hours or up to overnight. Fill with sorbet; top with peaches or almonds, if desired. Cut into pieces with a serrated knife.

This torte is a healthier dessert option. The meringue is made with egg whites, which are a good source of protein, and the filling is made with fresh fruit.

I used a mix of berries in the filling, and it was so refreshing. The tartness of the berries balanced out the sweetness of the meringue perfectly.

I added a layer of chocolate ganache to the filling, and it was divine! The chocolate and meringue complemented each other perfectly.

I love that this torte is gluten-free. I have a gluten intolerance, so it's hard to find desserts that I can enjoy. This torte is a lifesaver!
