CARDAMOM MAPLE MINI MACAROONS
I knew I wanted to do a cardamom macaroon recipe for this book because my grandmother, Doris, got me hooked on them when I was knee-high. My baker for this book, Wendy Remer, also has macaroon fever. These bite-size morsels are made using organic maple syrup with either a tad of brown rice syrup or honey for just the right amount of sweet. Meanwhile, cardamom adds a warm, spicy touch, while also aiding digestion and possibly slowing tumor growth.
Yield makes 24 macaroons
Number Of Ingredients 8
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine the egg whites, maple syrup, brown rice syrup, and salt in a saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, until just warm, about 1 minute. Add the coconut, flour, vanilla, and cardamom and continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture just begins to sizzle and is slightly dry, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool for a few minutes.
- Using a teaspoon and your fingers, form the dough into 24 small mounds on the prepared pan. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until golden brown. Let cool completely before serving.
- For a more decadent dessert, dip the macaroons in chocolate. Chop your favorite dark chocolate and place it in a dry metal or glass bowl and set it over a pan of gently simmering hot water (or use a double boiler if you have one). Stir the chocolate constantly until just melted, then remove it from the heat. Now for the fun part: Dip the macaroons into the melted chocolate, then place them on a pan or plate lined with wax or parchment paper. Chill in the refrigerator until the chocolate hardens, then enjoy!
- If you want a sweeter macaroon, bake these with honey. For a more mellow sweet taste that isn't over the top, use the brown rice syrup.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 5 to 7 days.

Tips:
- Choose the freshest ingredients possible. This will ensure that your macaroons have the best flavor and texture.
- Make sure your egg whites are at room temperature. This will help them whip up to a stiff peak, which is essential for the macaroons' structure.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the macaroons tough.
- Let the macaroons rest for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help them develop a skin, which will prevent them from cracking in the oven.
- Bake the macaroons at a low temperature. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from browning too much.
Conclusion:
White chocolate maple pecan macaroons are a delicious and elegant treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your own preferences. With a little planning and effort, you can create these beautiful and tasty cookies that will impress your friends and family.
