Ingredients

  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 1 ¾ cups confectioners’ sugar
  • 4 large egg whites, room temperature
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Food coloring (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a food processor, pulse almond flour and confectioners’ sugar until well combined. Sift the mixture into a large bowl and set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat egg whites until foamy. Gradually add granulated sugar and continue to beat until stiff peaks form. Mix in vanilla extract and food coloring if desired.
  4. Gently fold the almond flour mixture into the egg white mixture until smooth. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Transfer the batter to a piping bag with a round tip. Pipe small circles onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
  6. Tap the baking sheets on the counter to remove air bubbles. Let the macarons sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to form a skin.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes or until the macarons have risen and set. Let them cool completely on the baking sheets.
  8. Once cooled, match up similar-sized macarons and sandwich them with your choice of filling (e.g., buttercream, ganache).
  9. Enjoy your irresistible French macarons!
