Candy made from egg whites and nuts (meringue)

7. 10. 2025

We bake a lot of Christmas cookies, and in most cases, only egg yolks are added, so the egg whites gradually accumulate in our fridge.

Don’t just let it sit idle. As soon as you finish baking the type with the yolk, process the whites into the next type of candy.


What will you need for the walnut meringues?

  • 6 – 8 egg whites
  • 1/2 cup ground walnuts
  • 5 spoons of powdered sugar
  • pinch of salt

Method:


  • Nothing can go wrong with this recipe. We take a clean and mainly dry bowl, add the appropriate number of egg whites, add a pinch of salt, and use electric whisks to beat perfectly stiff snow.
  • Grind the nuts into a fine powder in a blender. Mix with powdered sugar and mix into stiff snow in parts.
  • Then, using a spoon or a pastry bag, form small meringues on a baking sheet lined with baking paper. Bake in an oven heated to 248°F for approximately 15 to 20 minutes. Baked meringues are very tender and have a luxurious taste.
