- Continue whisking until it thickens.
- Once the mixture has thickened, add in raisins, almonds, coconut flesh, and butter.
- Pour the mixture into a glass baking dish.
- While letting the mixture cools down, we’re going to make the vegan meringue.
- Prepare the cooled reduced aquafaba in a mixer bowl.
- Start whisking at medium speed.
- Once the aquafaba starts to foaming (5-6 minutes from the start), add sugar and cream of tartar slowly.
- Continue whisking until firm peaks form after, then sieve in cornstarch and whisk manually.
- Pipe in the meringue on top of the cake dish and flatten it out.
- Decorate with raisins, almonds, and coconut flesh.
- Bake in the preheated oven until browns (20-23 minutes)
