Who doesn’t love a good meringue? Crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside?
Making a pretty, white and glossy meringue with the perfect balance of crispy, airy and chewy has been next to impossible without using refined sugar…UNTIL NOW!
The secret to the success of these meringues is to make them using the Swiss method, heating the egg mix to a specific temperature before whipping them.
It’s not hard, I promise you.
I challenge you to make a batch of these to serve to friends without telling them. I bet they won’t notice, they’re that good.

INGREDIENTS:
2 large egg whites
½ cup of Sukrin Fiber Syrup
½ teaspoon of cream of tartar
1/8 teaspoon of white vinegar
Pinch salt
1 teaspoon of sugar-free vanilla extract
6 Tablespoons of Keto Salted Caramel Sauce (recipe below)
METHOD:
Pre-heat oven to 200° F
In a double boiler or a bowl over a saucepan of simmering water, place all of the ingredients except for the caramel sauce.
Whisk until combined and then continue stirring over the medium heat until the egg mixture reaches 140° F
Pour the mixture into the bowl of your mixture and begin beating on high.
Beat until cooled, thick and glossy (about 5 minutes)
Dollop spoonful’s onto a lined baking tray and shape into mounds.
Place a Tablespoon of Salted Caramel Sauce on top of each meringue and then swirl with a toothpick.
Bake for two hours and then leave in the oven until completely cooled.
Eat as is or with whipped cream and more sauce (just make sure to add that to your macros)
Meringues will soften if left out for too long, so I recommend eating them as soon as possible. If you do need to store them, do so in an airtight container with a paper towel in the bottom to absorb moisture.

Return to the heat and whisk over med-high heat for another five minutes until the sauce has reduced and thickened slightly.
Pour Salted Caramel Sauce into a glass jar and allow to cool slightly before using.
Seal jar tightly and store in the refrigerator.
The sauce may harden slightly when chilled, but just sit in hot water or microwave for a few seconds and then stir before serving.
Store, in a lidded jar, in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks (if it lasts that long)
