Jam meringue pies

Method

• 1
  Preheat oven to 180°C. Place the jam tarts on a large baking tray.

  Use an electric beater to beat the egg whites in a clean, dry bowl until soft peaks form. Add the caster sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating well after each addition until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is thick and glossy. Beat for a further 2 minutes or until light and fluffy.

  Divide the mixture among the tarts. Bake for 6-8 minutes or until light golden. Set aside to cool. Dust with icing sugar.
