Ingredients

  • 2 large egg white.
  • 6 tablespoons caster sugar.
  • 3 tablespoons ground almonds.
  • A pinch of salt.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  • 3 cups desiccated coconut.

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 170℃/ 338℉ at gas mark 3.
  2. Line a few baking sheets with parchment paper/ greaseproof paper.
  3. Beat the egg whites in a mixing bowl until soft peaks are formed. You can use a handheld mixer or a standing mixer.
  4. Then add the sugar one teaspoon at a time while you keep whisking. The mixture will turn glossy white with firmed peaks.
  5. Fold in the ground almonds, desiccated coconut, and vanilla extract to the egg whites. You want to work quickly here and do not overbeat. 
  6. Spoon the mixture and shape it into a small ball. Place the coconut ball on the baking sheet. Try to make it slightly domed.
  7. Bake for about 20 minutes until the macaroons look golden.

Notes

  • You can omit ground almonds if you want to make your macaroons nut free. Just replace the required amount with desiccated coconut.
  • If you want to, you can skip the vanilla extract and salt as well.
