💭 Thoughts & tips
Just follow the basic vegan meringues recipe as mentioned in the recipe, and add any toppings you like! In this recipe I used raspberry and chocolate. I have chosen to add vanilla yoghurt, but you can use any type of non-dairy creaminess. Like for example, a sweet labna. To make a labna just 'hang' a soya-based natural yoghurt overnight using a muslin. The day after add any interesting sweetness to your liking. Like a orange blossom, rose blossom or Vanilla. It gives a beautiful Middle eastern twist to your dessert. Especially when you decide to top it with pistachio's.
*tip; If the weather is extremely humid, do not pre-make the meringues, but bake them last minute. As they won't last long in high humid areas.
