Ingredients

  • 3 large egg whites, at room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar-free sweetener (erythritol or allulose)
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Food coloring (optional)

Steps

  1. 1Heat the oven to 300 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment.
  2. 2Beat the egg whites until foamy, then add the sweetener a little at a time.
  3. 3Add the cornstarch and vanilla and beat until stiff, glossy peaks form.
  4. 4Fold in a drop of food coloring if you like, then pile it into a tall dome on the sheet.
  5. 5Bake about 25 minutes, until lightly golden. Cool a few minutes and tear open.

Prep 10 min, bake 25 min. Label check: Sweetener: check for no added sugar or dextrose. Cornstarch is naturally gluten free, but buy one labeled gluten free. Vanilla extract is usually fine; imitation vanilla may contain additives.
