These are delicious! Though, next time I’m going to use an electric mixer so the egg whites won’t be so visible. Lol
thanks for trying and yes electric mixer is a good idea
You’re welcome. And yeah, I’ve made these again last night. I was sure to use my stand mixer this time and they came out looking better this time. They taste so good! You’d never guess they’re keto!
