Number of Servings: 16

Ingredients

    1/2 + 1/3 cup truvia (or stevia, or splenda)
    1/2 cup water
    2 tsp agar agar powder (or 2 tbsp flakes)
    6 tbsp liquid egg whites (or 2 large egg whites)
    pinch of cream of tartar
    3 tbsp vegan egg replacer, i.e. Ener-G

Directions

1. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine truvia, water and agar and stir well to dissolve. Stir constantly while bringing to a boil.
2. Turn down heat to low and let simmer for 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until mixture is thick and syrup-like. Remove from heat.
3. Meanwhile, in a large bowl with an electric hand mixer, beat egg whites and tartar at medium-high speed until fluffy and holding stiff peaks, about 5 minutes.
4. Fold in 1 tbsp egg replacer.
5. Carefully, in 3 additions, pour warm syrup into egg mixture, combining well between each addition; add additional 2 tbsp egg replacer.
6. Beat mixture at medium speed until glossy and stiff, about 2 more minutes.
7. Spread mixture into a nonstick 8in pan and place in freezer for at least 30 minutes (or up to overnight). Now can be used as marshmallow fluff!

**after frozen, thaw and store in the fridge. You can transfer containers as well.

ALSO: to toast the marshmallows, bake cake pan at 350F for about 10 minutes or until slightly puffed, a little brown, but not hard.
