French Macarons Recipe
INGREDIENTS:
For the macarons:
1 cup almond flour
2 cups icing sugar
3 egg whites
1/4 cup white sugar (granulated)
1/4 tsp cream of tartar
1/8 tsp salt (or a pinch)
drops of gel food colour (optional)
For the filling:
3 tbsp fresh raspberry juice (pure)
1/4 cup salted butter
3/4 cup icing sugar
Note:
You can choose any filling as desired.
If you want a white macaron just omit the gel food colouring.
INSTRUCTIONS:
For the macarons:
1. In a mixing bowl, sift the almond flour and the icing sugar. Mix thoroughly. Set aside.
2. In a separate mixing bowl, beat the egg whites, salt, cream of tartar, granulated sugar and drops of gel food colouring (using an electric mixer) until it forms a peak.
3. Combine the two (2) mixtures, the mixture #1 and the mixture #2. Just use an eggbeater or spatula in mixing. Mix Gently until smooth. Do not under-mix. Do not over-mix.
4. Place the mixture in an icing bag or pastry bag.
5. Pipe out 1 inch rounds on the baking tray with a baking paper. (Bang the tray 3 times with the macarons on it, to release the air inside the macarons.)
6. Let them sit out for 20-30 mins, or up to an hour.
7. Preheat the oven to 100 degrees celsius.
8. Bake the macarons for 18-20 minutes. (Just keep an eye, all ovens bake differently.)
9. Remove the tray from the oven. Let it cool down before removing the macarons from the tray.
for the filling
