How to Make Cinnamon Meringues

  1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper and lightly grease.
  2. In a clean, grease-free medium bowl, combine 4 large egg whites, 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar, 1/4 cup Splenda (or your preferred sugar substitute), and a pinch of salt.
  3. Using an electric mixer, beat the egg white mixture on medium speed until soft peaks form. Gradually increase the speed to high and continue beating until stiff, glossy peaks form.
  4. Gently fold in 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/2 teaspoon almond extract.
  5. Drop rounded tablespoons of the meringue mixture onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each meringue.
  6. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the meringues are crisp and dry to the touch. Do not open the oven door during baking.
  7. Let the meringues cool completely on the baking sheets before serving. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
