The batter spread all over the pan. What is missing?
Hmmmn I’m not sure what happened Lisa! Did you beat the egg whites long enough?
Doesn’t it at least need baking soda or baking powder?
Doesn’t seem to! The egg whites get quite fluffy. 🙂
Hmmm…why are these an S? I thought nuts were an E and egg whites too. I have such a learning curve on this plan. These look yummy and I can’t wait to try them regardless of whether they are an E or an S
Hey Anna! Nuts are always S because they’re fatty. Egg whites are FP because they can be used in either S or E setting. Don’t worry, you’ll get it eventually!

Do you know what I can use in place of the gentle sweet? I’m not at the point of buying them products yet…
I mean thm products (thanks spellchecker lol)
You can make your own truvia by combining a cup of erythritol with 1/2 tsp. of stevia.

Help! : These came out terrible for me too. They spread so thin and I couldn’t get them off the pan without them scraping into a wad. Is this because of not beating the egg whites long enough?
Bummed, feels like such a waste of product :(.
I am very new to all of this though, so I am trying to stay positive and be real about trial and error.
The egg whites do need to quite stiff. I’ll try to make them this week again to see if there’s a missing step though. They turned out fine for me! Sorry for the lost ingredients though. SO disappointing!

Mine spread all over the pan as well. I’m curious to see if you found another step, or if it’s newbies not beating the egg whites long enough.
Did you add the cream of tartar? I think that may have been the missing step.
