These meringues are a great easy vegan recipes that requires only 2 ingredients.
They can be used with a plant-based cream alternative and some fresh berries to make a delicious Eton mess.

Drain aquafaba from tinned chickpeas or aquafaba can be bought ready to use in supermarkets.

Begin by whisking the aquafaba on a medium speed for 3-5 minutes until becoming white and fluffy.
Add caster sugar a tablespoon at a time while continuing to whisk until all sugar is added and mixture is fluffy, glossy and holds a stiff peak. This may take up to 5 minutes as the sugar should be fully dissolved.
The mixture can then be piped or dolloped onto baking sheets and baked at 100°C for 2 hours.
Once cooked turn off the oven and leave meringues in for another 2 hours until fully cool.
