Ingredients

Instructions

  • Lightly roast pecans for 8-10 minutes at 250°F. Set aside to cool. Preheat oven to 300°F.
  • Mix egg whites with electric mixer until soft peaks form. Slowly add the erythritol and stevia to the egg whites with mixer on medium-high. Continue to whip the egg whites and sweeteners for a few minutes. Then, add the vinegar to the bowl. Increase speed to high and whip until egg whites form stiff peaks.
  • Chop pecans and fold into egg white mixture. Drop by teaspoons onto a cookie sheets that have been lined with parchment paper or a non-stick silicon mat.
  • Put the cookie sheets in the 300°F oven, close the door and turn the oven OFF. Leave them in the oven overnight. In the morning they should be done – crisp on the outside, light and airy on the inside. If they are a little chewy on the inside in the morning, let them dry out for a few more hours until crisp.
