Keto meringues

To make meringue, you will need the following ingredients:

• 4 large egg whites (4 pcs.)
• 1 pinch of salt
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract or vanillin (1 tsp.)
• 175 mg of erythritol powder (175 mg)

Preheat the oven to 95 °C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Without the paper, the meringue will stick to the surface.

Next, beat the egg whites with a mixer until soft white peaks form. Then lower the mixer speed to medium, add a pinch of salt (1 pinch) and vanilla extract (1 tsp.).

Continue beating with the mixer, adding the powdered erythritol (175 mg) 1 tablespoon at a time until it’s all used up.

You may need to stop once or twice to scrape the mixture from the sides of the bowl with a spatula.

After that, increase the mixer speed and continue beating until stiff white peaks form. This is an important step, as the final result depends on the correct texture.

Shape the meringue on the parchment using a spoon or a plastic bag with the tip cut off. You will get about 24 meringues.

Bake for 50-55 minutes, until they become firm and slightly golden, but not brown.

It is important to watch the process to prevent the meringues from burning.

After baking, remove the meringues from the oven and let them cool.
