Ingredients

  • 400g can chickpeas
  • 100g golden caster sugar

Method

  1. Heat oven to 110C/90C fan/gas ¼ and line a baking tray. Drain a 400g can of chickpeas over a bowl, and save the chickpeas for another recipe.

  2. Using an electric whisk, whisk the chickpea water to soft peaks, like egg whites. Add 100g golden caster sugar, a little at a time, whisking constantly until thick and glossy.

  3. Spoon or pipe the meringue in blobs, about 8cm wide, over the tray. Bake for 1 hr 15 mins until crisp. Leave to cool, then you can pile with soya cream and fruit for a delicious vegan dessert.
