Categories     Dessert

Time 42m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 large Egg whites ((aged overnight in the fridge and brought to room temperature))
14 tbsp Wholesome Yum Blanched Almond Flour ((*see notes))
4 tsp Cocoa powder
1/2 tsp Sea salt
1 1/2 cups Besti Powdered Monk Fruit Allulose Blend
1/4 cup Besti Monk Fruit Allulose Blend
1 tsp Vanilla extract
3 oz Heavy cream ((or coconut cream for dairy-free or paleo))
3 oz ChocZero Sugar-Free Chocolate Chips
1/8 tsp Sea salt

Steps:

  • Add your egg whites to a bowl and place in the refrigerator overnight.
  • Remove the egg whites from the refrigerator and allow them to come up to room temperature.
  • Sift together the almond flour, cocoa powder, salt and the Besti powdered sweetener. Set aside.
  • Using a hand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, whip the egg whites on low to a frothy consistency, then slowly add the Besti crystallized sweetener. Once the egg whites turn white, whip on medium until soft, glossy peaks form. Add the vanilla to the meringue during the soft peak stage, then continue whipping on medium-high for 5-7 minutes, until stiff peaks form.
  • Add 1/3 of the almond mixture to the meringue and fold together using a silicone spatula. Slowly add the rest of the almond mixture. Fold your spatula under the batter and around the edges and then cut through the batter until uniform. The macaronage is ready when you can easily form an "8" shape without the meringue breaking, and the batter dissolves back into the batter seamlessly.
  • Place a macaron baking mat on a baking sheet. Top the baking mat with parchment paper to prevent the macarons from sticking.
  • Add a round tip to a pastry bag and fill it with the macronage. Pipe the macronage onto the parchment paper, following the macaron template. Be careful not to go outside the outline.
  • Allow the macarons to dry uncovered for 30-60 minutes, until a crust forms on the surface and the macarons are dry to a gentle touch.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (176 degrees C) and bake for 12-15 minutes or until lightly browned. The cooled cookies should pull away from the parchment paper with ease. If they stick to the parchment paper they were not baked enough. Set aside to cool.
  • Meanwhile, make the chocolate ganache. Add the heavy cream, chocolate chips, and sea salt to a microwave safe bowl and microwave for 1 minute. If the chocolate chips are not fully melted, whisk and microwave for an additional 30 seconds.
  • Place the chocolate mixture into the fridge for 15 minutes, then whisk till smooth.
  • Once your macarons have cooled completely, remove from the parchment paper.
  • Add the chocolate ganache to a pastry bag and cut a small opening at the bottom. Pipe the ganache onto a cookie and top with another.

Tips:

  • Use almond flour: Almond flour is a key ingredient in keto macaroons, as it provides the structure and texture of the cookies.
  • Sweeten with erythritol: Erythritol is a natural sugar substitute that is low in carbs and has a similar taste and texture to sugar.
  • Add coconut oil: Coconut oil adds richness and moisture to the macaroons.
  • Use egg whites: Egg whites help to bind the ingredients together and give the macaroons a light and airy texture.
  • Flavor with vanilla extract: Vanilla extract adds a classic flavor to the macaroons.
  • Dip in chocolate: Dipping the macaroons in chocolate is a great way to add extra flavor and richness.

Conclusion:

Keto macaroons are a delicious and easy-to-make low-carb treat that can be enjoyed by people on a ketogenic diet. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create these tasty cookies that are perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth without sacrificing your dietary goals.
