Keto Meringue Cookies

Step by Step Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 200°F.

2. 2

   To a large clean, dry bowl, add egg whites. Add cream of tartar and a pinch of salt. Beat until mixture is foamy. It’s important for the bowl to be clean and dry so your meringue forms stiff peaks.

3. 3

   Slowly add sweetener while continuing to beat mixture. Add food coloring and flavoring, like vanilla extract, if using at this point. Beat until very stiff peaks form (around 3-5 minutes). Meringue needs to be so stiff that you can flip the bowl upside down without it falling out.

4. 4

   Add meringue mixture to a piping bag fitted with a large star tip or desired tip. Pipe little star shaped cookies out onto a parchment lined baking tray. Space each cookie about ½ inch apart.

5. 5

   Bake at 200°F for 1 hour. After an hour, turn off the oven, prop the door open about 1 inch with a wooden spoon, and let the meringue cookies cool inside for another hour to set and harden further.
