"Vegan Meringue Jam Drops ?? I've been shoulda, woulda, coulda, gonna use the liquid from my chickpea tins, so I save it every time and end up throwing it away. But this time I said NO! Use it!!! ?
So here's a perfect, healthy, refined sugar free, vegan and gluten free treat using your leftover chickpea liquid ? I used @natvianaturalsweetener stevia to replace the sugar, and since chickpea liquid normally gets thrown in the bin, that means these are virtually calorie free right ??
My mum and I road tested a few each, just to be sure ☺️#
