How to Make Chai Meringues

  1. Preheat oven to 250°F (120°C).
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
  3. Add 6 large egg whites to a clean, grease-free electric mixer bowl. Using a low speed, whip until frothy.
  4. Increase mixer speed to high and beat until stiff, glossy peaks form.
  5. Gradually add 1 cup of granulated sugar to the egg whites while continuing to beat on high speed. Once all sugar is incorporated, turn the mixer off. Gently fold in 1 teaspoon ground chai spice blend (see ingredient list for suggestions) by hand.
  6. Using a teaspoon or piping bag, drop small spoonfuls of meringue onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each meringue.
  7. Bake for 90 minutes.
  8. Turn off the oven and leave the meringues inside with the oven door slightly ajar until completely cool (at least 2 hours).
  9. Store meringues in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
