Instructions:

  • Preheat your oven to 225°F (107°C) and line two baking sheets with aluminum foil.
  • In a large bowl, beat the egg whites together with the BetterStevia, salt, and cream of tartar. Gradually add the xylitol, continuing to beat until the mixture stiff peaks are formed.
  • If you'd like to add some festive-feels, add 1-2 drops of red food coloring onto the mixture and gently swirl it around. Be mindful not to mix the food coloring in completely – this will help to achieve the red swirls in the white egg mixture.
  • Drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the baking sheets, spacing them about one inch apart.
  • If you're using crushed peppermint, sprinkle it over the meringues.
  • Bake the meringues for 1½ hours until they are be completely dry on the inside. Be careful not to let them turn brown.
  • Turn off the oven, open the door, and allow the meringues to cool completely inside the oven.
  • Once cooled, loosen the meringues from the foil and enjoy!
  • Store the remaining meringues in a container, loosely covered with parchment paper, in a cool, dry spot for up to 2 months.

Enjoy these delightful and festive meringues as a sugar-free, guilt-free treat.

We promise, you won't be getting enough of these any time soon!
