Ingredients

40 g pecans
3 egg whites
Pinch salt
150 g caster sugar
1 teaspoon vinegar

Metric - US Customary

Instructions

Pre-heat the oven to 150C
Roughly chop the pecans and then toast them in a dry frying pan. Keep moving them so they don't burn.
Put the egg white and a pinch of salt in a bowl and whisk. After about a minute add the sugar. Keep adding a little at a time and whisking.
Add the vinegar and whisk for about 4-5 minutes until the mixture forms stiff peaks.
Cover a baking tray with non-stick baking parchment. If you want some plain meringues, spoon some of the mixture onto the parchment first. Add the pecans to the rest of the mixture. Fold in then continue to spoon onto the baking paper.
Put in the oven. Turn the oven off and leave overnight.

Notes

Nutritional information is approximate and a guideline only.

The number of meringues depends very much on the person making them. You could make a larger number of smaller meringues.
