Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 250F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. Arrange oven racks on second lowest and second highest positions.
3. In a glass/metal bowl, combine egg whites, erythritol, xylitol, or sweetener of choice, cream of tartar and salt. Beat on medium high until medium stiff peaks form and mixture becomes somewhat glossy. Don’t beat until stiff.
4. Spoon meringues onto a pan with parchment paper. (Makes 20-24 meringues).
5. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes at 250. Then reduce oven temperature to 200 and continue to bake for another 18 to 20 minutes.
6. Turn off oven and let meringues it inside for 2 hours or longer.
7. Remove from pan and peel off parchment.
8. Important Note: Using xylitol for this recipe requires a longer dry-out time for the meringues. (Overnight).
