Ingredients

• 4 large Egg whites
• 0.75 cup Granulated erythritol
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons Confectioner's erythritol (optional)
• 2 cups Fresh strawberries
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 6 leaves Mint leaves (optional garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large, clean, and dry mixing bowl, whisk the egg whites with an electric mixer on medium speed until they form soft peaks.

Step 3

Begin adding the granulated erythritol gradually, one tablespoon at a time, while continuing to whisk. This process should take about 5-7 minutes.

Step 4

Add the vanilla extract and continue whisking until the mixture forms stiff, glossy peaks.

Step 5

Spoon or pipe dollops of the meringue onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about an inch between each.

Step 6

Bake the meringues in the preheated oven for 1.5 hours, or until they are dry to the touch and can be lifted easily from the parchment paper.

Step 7

Turn off the oven and allow the meringues to cool completely inside the oven to prevent them from cracking.

Step 8

While the meringues are cooling, slice the strawberries and place them in a bowl. Add the lemon juice and gently toss to combine. Let them macerate for about 10 minutes.

Step 9

In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. If using, incorporate the confectioner's erythritol, adjusting to your preferred sweetness.

Step 10

Once the meringues are cooled, gently crush them into large pieces.

Step 11

To assemble: Layer meringue pieces, whipped cream, and strawberries in individual serving glasses or a large bowl. Repeat if necessary, ending with a topping of strawberries.

Step 12

Garnish with mint leaves if desired and serve immediately.
