Time 1h

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 egg whites
1 ½ teaspoons lemon zest
1 cup white sugar
1 ½ cups ground almonds
2 drops red food coloring

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.
  • In a large glass or metal mixing bowl, beat egg whites until foamy. Gradually add lemon zest and sugar, continuing to beat until whites form stiff peaks. Color light green or pink with the food coloring while mixing. Using a rubber spatula, fold in the ground almonds. Drop by heaping spoonfuls onto the prepared cookie sheet. Cookies should be about 2 inches apart.
  • Bake for 20 to 30 minutes in the preheated oven, until cookies are firm and slightly brown. Allow cookies to cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before removing to wire racks to cool completely.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my macaroons turned out flat and crumbly. They were still edible, but they weren't very good.

I thought these macaroons were just okay. They were a bit dry and I didn't really taste the almond flavor.

These macaroons are a great make-ahead dessert. I made them a few days ahead of time and they were still just as delicious.

I've tried many almond macaroon recipes over the years, but this one is by far my favorite. The addition of coconut gives them a unique flavor and texture that I just love.

These almond macaroons were a huge hit at my last dinner party! They were so easy to make and turned out perfectly crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside.
