1

Crack and separate the yolks from 4 large eggs, setting the egg whites aside.

2

Squeeze the juice of 1 lemon into the egg whites to ensure no fat is present.

3

Using a stand mixer with whisk attachments, whisk the egg whites until soft peaks form, adding the Monk sweetener gradually.

4

Add the lemon juice, 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt while whisking.

5

Scoop the meringue mixture onto a baking sheet and bake at 200°F for about 1.5 hours, then leave it in the oven overnight to harden.

6

Prepare 1 pound of strawberries by removing the green tops and quartering half of them, while smashing the other half to release juice.

7

Mix the smashed strawberries with additional Monk sweetener if desired.

8

Whip 1 cup of cream until soft peaks form, adding 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract and about 1/2 cup of Monk sweetener halfway through.

9

Assemble the Eton Mess by layering broken meringue, whipped cream, and strawberries in serving dishes.
