Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

- Stir in the sugar, pure vanilla extract, pure almond extract, and gluten-free flour into the egg whites.
- Stir the sweetened coconut into the egg white mixture, mixing until fully combined.
- Scoop out the cookie dough using a greased 1 ½ teaspoon cookie scoop spacing about 1-inch apart. Do not flatten the cookie dough balls.

Tips:
- Use unsweetened shredded coconut. This will help to control the sweetness of the macaroons and prevent them from becoming too overpowering.
- Toast the coconut before using it. This will bring out its flavor and make it more fragrant.
- Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the macaroons tough.
- Use a cookie scoop to drop the batter onto the baking sheet. This will help to ensure that the macaroons are all the same size and shape.
- Bake the macaroons until they are golden brown. This will take about 15-20 minutes.
- Let the macaroons cool completely before serving. This will help them to firm up and develop their full flavor.
Conclusion:
Gluten-free coconut macaroons are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are a great way to use up leftover egg whites, and they can be made ahead of time and stored in the freezer. Whether you are looking for a sweet snack or a festive dessert, these macaroons are sure to please.
