Ingredients:
- 4 egg whites

- 1 tsp desiccated coconut
- 1 lime, zested
- Fresh mint to garnish
Method:
- Preheat the oven to 90°C.
- Add egg whites to a stand mixer with the whisk attachment, mix on low, increasing to medium until the egg white become foamy peaks. Then, add maple sugar a few tablespoons at a time until it’s incorporated, and the meringue becomes stiff and glossy.
- Pipe the meringue out onto the prepared baking sheet using a large round star nozzle.
- Bake the meringues for 3 hours.
