Ingredients For French Macaroons Recipes

  • 3 egg whites
  • 6 tablespoons superfine (castor) sugar
  • 1 cup almond meal
  • 1 ⅓ cups confectioners' sugar

Instructions: French Macaroons Recipes

  • Step 1: Preheat the oven to 320 degrees F (160 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  • Step 2: Whisk egg whites in a clean metal mixing bowl until thick, about 5 minutes. Whisk superfine sugar into egg whites until thick, glossy, and stiff peaks form, 5 to 8 more minutes.
  • Step 3: Sift almond meal and confectioners' sugar over beaten egg whites; gently fold in, retaining as much air as possible.
  • Step 4: Divide meringue into separate bowls to flavor and color, if desired.
  • Step 5: Spoon meringue into a piping bag fitted with a 3/8-inch tip. Pipe 1-inch disks of meringue onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between cookies.
  • Step 6: Let cookies stand at room temperature to form a thin skin, about 15 minutes.
  • Step 7: Lift the baking sheets; let drop from several inches above the work surface to adhere cookies to the baking sheets.
  • Step 8: Bake in the preheated oven until tops are dry, about 15 minutes; let cool completely on the baking sheets before peeling off the parchment paper, about 45 minutes.
