It's time for SRC again! Each month, we're paired with another blogger, and we get to pick a recipe from their blog to showcase. This month, I got Julie from White Lights on Wednesday. I wasn't sure what to make. I thought about her Coconut Cranberry Granola, which led me to some sweet treats - Strawberry Pudding Pops and Baked Alaska. (I've been intrigued by Baked Alaska since playing The Sims since it's one of the food options.) Then I saw Meringues. I've wanted to make meringues for a while, and now is my chance! I just made a minor change by using maple syrup instead of sugar since I wasn't sure if the sugar would dissolve completely or still feel a bit grainy. I also opted not to add any food coloring since we weren't making these for any particular special occasion. Hope you enjoy these light and airy treats!

Oooh, I love these! I love meringues, I love maple syrup - I can't believe I've never combined the two! Great choice. I had your blog this month and really enjoyed choosing my recipe. Thanks for all the delicious inspiration!
ReplyDeleteGreat choice for SRC. I love Meringues, and it's been years since I made some. Now I want to go and search out my Mom's recipes, she made the best ones.
ReplyDeleteI've never tried flavouring meringues - maple sounds like a gorgeous addition.
ReplyDeleteOh they sound really good! I need to try making meringues again since the first time I attempted them, they didn't work out well.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you liked the meringues! I never thought to add maple syrup. I'll have to try that. I bet my boys would love it!
ReplyDeleteThese look great! I have a lot of friends here in New England who love everything maple and would be thrilled with these!

ReplyDeleteWe really enjoyed the maple flavor in these meringues. I thought about using other flavors, but then I got scared about making too many changes. :)
ReplyDeleteWe really enjoyed them! :) I think one of the keys is to make sure you have really stiff peaks. Hope your second try turns out better than your first. :)
