  • 4 egg whites, room temperature (or 2 large eggs if following WW BLUE or PURPLE)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla, peppermint, or almond extract
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup zero point sugar substitute (such as Lakanto Monkfruit Classic Sweetener)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, ensuring the perfect temperature for baking these delectable cookies.

Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, being careful not to overbake. The cookies should be firm around the edges but slightly soft in the center.
