Directions
-
Step 1In a food processor, combine the powdered sugar and almond flour. Process until well combined and fine in texture. Sieve the mixture into a bowl and set aside.
-
Step 2In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites using an electric mixer until foamy. Gradually add the granulated sugar while continuing to beat until stiff peaks form.
-
Step 3Gently fold the almond flour mixture into the beaten egg whites, using a spatula, until the batter is smooth and slightly runny. Add food coloring if desired and fold until evenly colored.
-
Step 4Transfer the batter into a piping bag fitted with a round tip. Pipe small rounds onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving space between each macaron shell.
-
Step 5Tap the baking sheet on the counter a few times to release any air bubbles. Let the macaron shells sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to form a thin, dry crust.
-
Step 6Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C). Bake the macarons for 15-18 minutes until they are set and easily lift off the parchment paper. Let them cool completely on a wire rack.
-
Step 7Match similar-sized shells and fill them with your desired filling. Gently press the shells together to create a sandwich.
-
Step 8Refrigerate the filled macarons for at least 24 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the texture to soften.
Tips and Tricks:
Use aged egg whites for better results. Separate the egg whites and let them sit in a covered container in the refrigerator for 24-48 hours before using.
Be gentle when folding the almond flour mixture into the beaten egg whites to avoid deflating the batter.
If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a ziplock bag with a small hole cut in one corner for piping the macaron shells.
Experiment with different flavors and fillings, such as chocolate ganache, raspberry jam, or citrus buttercream, to create a variety of macaron delights.
