Preheat oven to 100 fan and line a baking tray with greaseproof paper
In a clean glass bowl whisk the egg whites until you have stiff peaks add in the sugar 1tbsp at a time and continue to whisk
Spoon the meringue onto the prepared baking sheet and create 4 meringues with a slight well in the middle
Place into the oven for 1 hour 30 minutes, until the meringue is cooked and peels away from the paper, allow to cool
Combine the double cream, vanilla, icing sugar and whisk together slowly adding in a few blackberries at a time (reserve a few for decoration) until the cream holds its shape and has a purple colour
Once the meringues are cool add some blackberry cream into the well and top with figs, left over blackberries, flaked almonds and a sprinkle of icing sugar
