Muscovado Meringues
This recipe is a little different to most meringue recipes and that's all thanks to Natura Sugars Muscovado Sugar!

- Lowerthe speed and add the Natura Sugars Muscovado Sugar gradually.
- Beat until the sugar has dissolved completely.
- Drop large spoonfuls of the meringue onto the prepared baking trays.
- Sprinkle the meringues with a little extra muscovado sugar.
- Bake for 2-2 ½ hours or until the meringues are crisp but still marshmallowy on the inside.
TIP: You can check that they’re done by lifting one off the tray, the outside should be crunchy and hard with a slightly soft center.
