Ghost Meringues



These adorable Ghost Meringues are a perfect gluten-free treat for Halloween. They are light, crisp, and hauntingly delicious. Decorate them with spooky faces for a festive touch!

Ingredients:
  • 4 large egg whites
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Black gel food coloring for decorating
  • Piping bag with a round tip
  • Parchment paper

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 200F 93C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper

In a clean, dry mixing bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer on high speed until they form stiff peaks

Gradually add the granulated sugar while continuing to beat the egg whites

Beat until the mixture is glossy and the sugar is fully dissolved

Mix in the vanilla extract until well combined

Transfer the meringue mixture into a piping bag fitted with a round tip

Pipe ghost shapes onto the parchment paper-lined baking sheet

Start with a small circle for the head and then pipe a larger, slightly elongated shape for the body

Make a few ghost shapes on the sheet, leaving space in between each one

Use black gel food coloring to create eyes and mouths on each ghost shape to give them a spooky look

Bake in the preheated oven for about 1

5 hours or until the meringues are dry and crisp

You can check by gently touching one to see if it's firm

Once done, turn off the oven and leave the meringues inside to cool completely

Once cooled, carefully peel the meringue ghosts off the parchment paper and they are ready to serve! Enjoy your gluten-free Ghost Meringues for Halloween!
