Matcha Meringues!
Matcha meringues!
These aren’t particularly healthy, but they look great and would be perfect for St Patricks Day celebrations!
2 egg whites
125 g caster sugar
1 tablespoon of Radiance Matcha (green tea) Powder
1/4 teaspoon of cream of tartar
What to do:
- Preheat the oven to 150 C and line a baking tray with baking parchment.
- Whip egg whites until they get foamy. Add the cream of tartar and continue whipping until you get stiff peaks.
- Now you can begin slowly adding the sugar, a spoonful at a time. Make sure that each new spoonful is incorporated before you add the next. Continue beating until the mixture turns smooth and glossy. This takes a while, up to ten minutes.
- Once the sugar has dissolved, add the matcha and beat until combined. If you’re using extra food colouring, add this too.
- Spoon the meringue into a piping bag and pipe onto the baking tray. Or alternately, just put small spoonfuls onto the baking tray.
- Put the tray in the oven and bake for 20 minutes, until dry. Turn off the oven, crack the door open & leave the meringues in there to cool.
- When cool remove from the oven.
- Store in an air tight container for up to a week.
