Servings: 30 - about 2 ½ cups
Calories: 1kcal
- 2 ½ cups Granulated Allulose
- 2 Large Egg White
- 2 teaspoon Lemon Juice
Measure allulose into a mini food processor, let it run until the allulose is powdered. Leave the lid on - letting the dust settle - while you start with the egg whites:
In clean stand mixer - or with an electric hand mixer - whip egg whites until foamy.
Add lemon juice, whip for few seconds to combine.
Slowly add powdered allulose until cookie icing reaches desired consistency. You will want a fairly thick frosting – but still smooth and workable – for piping details and borders.
If you're not using it immediately, transfer to an airtight container, cover surface with plastic wrap, and secure lid tightly.
Re-whip before use.
See post for full details on how to use this frosting, including the different consistencies you can mix it to, and their uses.
