Ingredients

  • 3 egg whites room temperature
  • ½ cup monk fruit/erythritol
  • 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla bean paste
  • ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
  • pinch of salt

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 225°F.
  2. Add the egg whites to a clean, dry bowl of a stand mixer. If you don’t have a stand mixer, you can use a mixing bowl and hand mixer. I wouldn’t recommend trying to whisk them by hand, it would take a lot of effort.
  3. Using the whisk attachment whip to soft peaks.
  4. With the mixer running, add in the cream of tartar and salt, then and slowly add in the sweetener. Mix to stiff peaks. You’ll know when it’s ready when the meringue stands up firm at the top of the whisk. You can also turn the mixing bowl upside down and the meringue stays in place.
  5. Add in the vanilla bean paste (or extract) and continue mixing just until it’s incorporated throughout.
  6. Scoop out the meringue and transfer it to a piping bag fitted with a large star tip. If you don’t have a piping bag, you can use a gallon size food storage bag with the corner snipped off at the tip.
  7. Pipe out your meringues onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a Silpat. I was able to get 44 cookies in my batch. Don’t make them too large, otherwise they will take longer to bake. And you want them to be around the same size, so that they all bake evenly.
  8. Bake in the lower ⅓ rack of your oven for 1 hour or until they are crisp, but still tender inside. Turn the oven off and leave them in there for another hour to fully crisp up.
  9. Store in an airtight container at room temperature in a cool place (like your pantry) for 10-14 days.

Notes

  • Makes about 44 cookies, serving size 4 cookies
  • If you can't find vanilla bean paste, you can use 3 teaspoons of vanilla extract instead.
  • If you’ve never had these before, the flavor and scent is similar to slightly toasted marshmallows. They are absolutely delicious!
