📝 Preparation Steps
1
Preheat oven to 325° and line a muffin pan with cupcake liners. Set aside.
2
Sift together the flour and salt and set side.
3
In the bowl of a mixer, add the egg whites and water. Use the whisk attachment to whip on medium until frothy. Add the cream of tartar and 1-2 tablespoons of sugar. With the mixer on medium-high, add the remaining sugar a little at a time. Whip until you achieve stiff peaks.

In 2-3 additions add the flour to the egg whites and use a rubber spatula to fold it in. Be careful not to deflate the egg whites too much. Mix only until just combined.

Scoop batter into the cupcake liners until they are about ¾ full. Bake for ⏱️ 20-23 minutes, until the tops start to turn golden brown.
7
Cool the cupcakes in the pan for about ⏱️ 5 minutes and then flip them upside down in the pan. Allow to cool for ⏱️ 10 minutes more in the pan to prevent them from deflating.
