Meringues

Here I am yet again with another recipe! This recipe is very easy and you can enjoy them at any time! So, without further ado, the recipe.

I got this recipe from a cookbook by Dinah Bucholz.



Special tools or ingredients: cream of tartar

INGREDIENTS

2 large egg whites, room temperature

1/8 tsp. salt

1/8 tsp. cream of tartar

1/2 tsp. vanilla extract (or any other flavor you would like.)

1/2 cup granulated sugar

Food coloring (optional)

TOOLS

2 baking sheets

medium bowl

beater (stand or hand mixer)

Pastry bag or spoon

Parchment paper

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 225 degrees Fahrenheit or about 105 degrees Celsius. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Pace egg whites, salt, cream of tartar, and vanilla in a large mixing bow and beat unti soft mounds form. Gradually add the sugar into and beat util stiff but still glossy. When I say do not over mix, DO NOT. If you do it will become dry and cottony and you wil have to start all over again. 

2. Fill a pastry bag with the mixture and pipe little rosettes on the baking sheet about a half inch apart. If you do not have a pastry bag, use a spoon and plop them down on the sheet. Bake for one hour, rotating pans and switching shelves halfway through. Then turning the oven off, leave the meringues in the oven another hour to dry out. If you have any leftover meringue mixture after baking, throw it out because it will not be good.

3. Serve and enjoy! 



Now you can enjoy your meringues while watching movies or reading your favorite book!
I hope this recipe worked out for you! Enjoy and happy baking! (Feel free to leave recipe suggestions in the comments!)

Fluffy Blueberry-Lemon Pancakes

 Pancakes are quite easy to make if you do it right. They are also very versatile, and you can add chocolate, nuts, and, specifically in this recipe, blueberries and lemon. This is a very nice breakfast for a special morning, or just a slow morning!  This is recipe number four in my fall recipe series, and you can skip adding the blueberries and lemon if they are not in season, and just stick to the spices for a full-fall pancake. This recipe is perfect for September.   I got this recipe from The Complete Cookbook for Young Chefs (I altered the recipe quite a bit, but it is very loosely based on it.) Special tools or ingredients: blueberries and lemon Ingredients 1 cup all-purpose flour 2 tbsp. sugar 2 tsp. baking powder 1/4 tsp. baking soda 1/2 tsp. salt 3/4 cup milk 1 large egg 2 tbsp. oil (Vegetable, canola, and olive work well.) 1/4 tsp. vanilla extract (You can also use almond extract and it still tastes amazing!)
