AIP Coconut Macaroon Kisses image

Number Of Ingredients 15

30 grams Erythritol
2 pieces free range Egg Yolks
30 grams Sweet Potato Starch
1 teaspoon Ginger Juice
1 teaspoon Apple Cider Vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
20 grams Fresh Squeezed Orange Juice
25 grams melted Coconut Oil
2 pieces free range Egg Whites
1/2 teaspoon of Sodium Bicarbonate
40 grams Coconut Flour
1 tablespoon shredded Coconut Flakes
30 grams pitted Dried Prunes
20 grams 100% Dark Chocolate*
1 tablespoon Coconut Milk

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F.
  • Beat yolks and erythritol until foamy.
  • Add in the sweet potato starch and keep on mixing well until creamy.
  • Keeping on mixing, add in the vanilla extract, apple cider vinegar, orange juice and a pinch of stevia, baking soda and sodium bicarbonate.
  • Add in the whites, mix well and lastly add in the coconut flour.
  • When the batter is smooth and rather solid, transfer it into a pastry bag.
  • Line a baking pan with parchment paper and squeeze out dollops of batter on the pan, swirling the pastry bag around so you can give it a circular shape.
  • Sprinkle your AIP Coconut Macaroons with shredded coconut and bake for 18-20 minutes.
  • When the AIP Coconut Macaroons are ready, take them out of the oven, place them on a griddle and let them cool down while you prepare the Prune Chocolate Filling
  • Blend the dried prunes together with the coconut milk until creamy.
  • Melt the dark chocolate over very low heat. When melted, add in the blended prunes and mix well until smooth.
  • Scoop a teaspoon of Prune & Chocolate Filling on the bottom of one of the AIP Macaroons and sandwich another one on top. Continue until finished and enjoy your amazing grain free dessert!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the taste of your macaron kisses.
  • Make sure your egg whites are at room temperature. This will help them whip up more easily and give your macaron kisses a lighter texture.
  • Don't over-mix the batter. Over-mixing will make your macaron kisses tough.
  • Pipe the batter onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. This will help prevent the macaron kisses from sticking.
  • Bake the macaron kisses until they are set and have a slightly crispy exterior. The center of the macaron kisses should be soft and chewy.
  • Let the macaron kisses cool completely before filling them. This will help prevent the filling from making the macaron kisses soggy.
