Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

- Fold the dry ingredients into the meringue until just combined; transfer to a piping bag and pipe small rounds onto prepared sheets.
- Bake one tray at a time for 15-20 minutes until shells are firm but slightly soft in the center. Cool completely before removing.
