Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 90 grams egg whites (from carton)
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 1/4 tsp cream of tartar
  • 1 cup 100% pure maple syrup Sugar-free syrup will not work!
  • 1/4 cup honey Or more maple syrup!
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Ensure your mixing bowl is clean, free of grease or oil to whip the egg whites properly.
  2. In a stand mixer, whip the egg whites until frothy.
  3. Add cream of tartar and sea salt, continuing to whip until soft peaks form.
  4. In a medium pot, combine water, honey, and maple syrup. Heat on medium until it reaches 240°F, about 10 minutes.
  5. Remove from heat and slowly pour the syrup into the whipped egg whites while the mixer is on medium speed.
  6. Once all syrup is added, increase speed and whip until thick and glossy, about 5 minutes.
  7. Add vanilla extract and whip for another minute.
  8. Transfer the fluff into a large jar or container.

Notes

Best enjoyed within 3 to 4 days, but can last up to a week at room temperature. If fluffiness decreases, re-whip to restore texture.
