Follow The Directions

01

Step

Sift 1 cup confectioners' sugar into a medium bowl. Sift in 0.75 cup coconut flour.

02

Step

Beat 3 egg whites in a separate bowl using an electric mixer until white and foamy. Add 0.33 cup white sugar slowly. Beat until mixture is glossy and forms stiff peaks.

03

Step

Sift the coconut flour mixture into the egg whites, a few tablespoons at a time, folding after each addition. Batter should be thick and gooey and able to fall off a spoon slowly like lava.

04

Step

Fit a piping bag with a coupler and a tip. Drop piping bag tip-down into a tall glass and fold edges down around the glass. Spoon batter into the bag. Gather edges and twist together.

05

Step

Holding the tip at a 90 degree angle, pipe batter onto a greased baking sheet to form individual macaron shells. Tap baking sheet onto a countertop to remove air bubbles. Let sit until dry, 15 to 60 minutes.

06

Step

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).

07

Step

Bake in the preheated oven until tops are firm, 15 to 20 minutes.

08

Step

Puree 1 cup raspberries in a food processor, adding water if using frozen raspberries. Strain out the seeds using a fine-mesh strainer.

09

Step

Beat 0.5 cup butter and 1/2 the 1.5 cups confectioners' sugar in a bowl using an electric mixer until combined. Add the remaining 1/2 and beat until creamy. Add raspberry puree and 1 tablespoon heavy cream; mix well to make the frosting.

10

Step

Spoon a small amount of frosting over the flat side of a macaron shell; cap with another shell. Repeat with the remaining filling and shells.

For best results, use a kitchen scale to measure ingredients accurately.
The macaron batter should be thick and lava-like. If it's too runny, the macarons will spread too much during baking.
Resting the piped macarons before baking is crucial for developing the 'feet'.
Baking time may vary depending on your oven. Keep a close eye on the macarons to prevent burning.
