3 Ingredient Coconut Macaroons
Description
Made from only egg whites, shredded sweetened coconut, and sugar, these macaroons are straightforward coconut cookies. Whisking the egg whites before folding in sugar and coconut helps create a light texture that holds its shape after scooping onto prepared baking sheets. Baking at 350 degrees until the macaroons turn lightly golden ensures a tender but cohesive bite.
The limited ingredients emphasize the coconut's natural sweetness and texture, making these macaroons a simple treat. Cooling before serving allows them to firm up slightly. Their minimal ingredient list makes them approachable for basic baking and coconut lovers.
