It’s Christmas time! Why not decorate your Christmas tree with some edible ornaments?! Let’s make some meringue Christmas wreaths!
Edible Christmas Ornaments- Sugar-free Meringue wreath low-carb cookies
Description
I love meringue cookies, except the fact that they are really sugary. So here, I am posting a recipe of sugar-free meringue cookies! Well, except the sprinkles are not sugar-free 😬 because they were prettier than the keto sprinkles!
Ingredients
Instructions
- Add the egg whites in a clean bowl
- Add salt and cream of tartar
- Start whisking at low speed for around 20 seconds
- Once the egg whites become nice and foam, add the sweetener approximately 1 teaspoon at a time
- Whisk for 1 to 2 minutes until medium peaks form
- At this point you can add any flavor you like. You can also add in some food color if you wish
- Keep whisking till stiff peaks form. This will take approximately 30 seconds more
- Fill the meringue into a piping bag
- Draw 2 inch circles on the paper and place a parchment paper over it on a baking pan
- Pipe little stars using the 1M tip to decorate them (refer to the video)
- Erythritol cookies are more brittle than sugar meringue cookies and they turn Beige color faster in the oven
- So it is really important to bake them at a lower temperature in the oven and for a longer time
- Bake them at 160° fahrenheit for two hours then turn the oven off and leave them inside with the door ajar for two hours to cool down
- The cookies come of easily if you scrape or push the parchment paper below it

Notes
- Make sure that the eggs are at room temperature
- Powder the erythritol as fine as possible in a coffee grinder to avoid a gritty texture in the cookies
- You can substitute Swerve with granulated sugar if you wish. I have not tried other types of sweeteners. If you do, let me know how the cookies turned out
- If you want to flavor your meringue cookies you can use any extract of your choice like Almond, Vanilla,lemon, coconut rose, peppermint etc
- Try to be gentle when removing the cookies from the parchment paper! They break really easily!
- You could also stick two of them together with some melted chocolate!
- These meringues will stay totally fine on your tree as long as it’s dry or as long as kids are not around 😂
