Ingredients
- 1 cup maple syrup (preferably dark syrup for its robust flavour)
- 1/2 cup orange juice
- 3 egg whites
- Pinch of cream of tartar
- Pinch of salt
Method
- Put maple syrup and orange juice into a heavy-bottomed saucepan. Boil over medium heat until temperature on a candy thermometer reads 115 °C (240 °F).
- Meanwhile, beat the egg whites, cream of tartar and salt in a stand mixer or bowl at medium speed, until soft peaks form.
- When the syrup comes to temperature, reduce mixer speed and continue to beat whites while slowly drizzling the syrup on them.
- Then increase speed and beat for about 10 minutes or until the meringue is warm and formed into very stiff peaks.
