Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 0.75 cups granulated sugar
- 2 large egg whites
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 cups sliced almonds (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, granulated sugar, and salt until evenly combined.
In a separate small bowl, lightly beat the egg whites until frothy but not stiff.
Add the beaten egg whites and vanilla extract to the almond flour mixture and stir until a thick, sticky dough forms.
Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, portion out small mounds of the dough and place them onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch of space between each macaroon.
If desired, sprinkle each macaroon with a few sliced almonds for garnish, gently pressing them into the top of the dough.
Bake in the preheated oven for 13–15 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden. Be careful not to overbake to ensure a chewy texture.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the macaroons to cool on the sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, store the macaroons in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
