Ingredients
2 large egg whites
⅛ tsp cream of tartar
2 tsp stevia (4 packets or 16—24 drops)
1 Tbls orange zest
2 oranges, peeled and segmented

Directions
Preheat oven to 350F. In a glass or metal bowl, beat the egg whites until foamy. Add the stevia and cream of tartar and beat until peaks are stiff. Lay the orange segments pin-wheel fashion in a small baking dish or ramekin (an oven-proof soup bowl would also work). Mound the meringue on top of the oranges all the way to the edge of the baking dish and bake until the peaks are golden brown, about 15 minutes. Garnish with the orange zest. Makes two portions.
