How to Make Marshmallow Fluff (Paleo)

Step 1

In a clean mixing bowl for an electric mixer with a whisk attachment, add egg whites.

Step 2

In a large pot add water, honey and maple syrup, in that order, being careful not to get any of the mixture on the sides of the pot. Turn the heat to medium and let the sugar mixture cook undisturbed.

Step 3

When the sugar syrup reaches about 225°F, start whipping the egg whites on medium-high speed. Once they have started to get frothy add the cream of tartar and salt. Whip to soft peaks.

Step 4

When the the sugar syrup has reached 240°F, remove from the heat, turn mixer to medium and very slowly and carefully pour the sugar syrup into the egg whites in a thin, steady stream. Aim to get the syrup in between the bowl and the whisk attachment so you don’t spray the hot mixture everywhere.

Step 5

Once all of the syrup is in, increase the speed and continue to whip for 8 minutes, or until the mixture is thick and glossy.

Step 6

Add in vanilla extract and whip for one one more minute.
