Low Carb French Meringue Macaroons Recipe - (4.1/5) image

Provided by aerin8

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 large egg whites, cold
1/2 teaspoon coconut extract
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/4 cup sugar substitute
1 cup almond flour
Coconut Butter Cream Cheese Filling
6 ounces cream cheese, softened to room temperature
2 tablespoons butter, softened to room temperature
1/3 cup sugar substitute
1 teaspoon coconut extract, may use vanilla

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. 2. Add the egg whites to a mixing bowl and whisk until frothy. Add all the remaining ingredients, except the almond flour, and whisk until a little more frothy and thick. 3. Fold in the almond flour until well combined. Place heaping tablespoons of the meringue mixture in rows on the prepared sheet pan, leaving a couple inches of space between each cookie. The recipe should make about 24 cookies. 4. Bake for about 25 minutes until just starting to brown and they are firm to the touch. Remove and cool completely before frosting. 5. While the meringue cookies cool, make the filling by adding all of the filling ingredients to an electric mixer and beating on the highest speed until light and fluffy. 6. NOTE: Only frost right before serving. To serve, spread a thin layer of filling between 2 cooled baked cookies to make the meringue macaroons. Serve immediately once frosted; otherwise, store unfrosted cookies in an airtight container on the counter, keeping the filling in the refrigerator. HELPFUL HINTS Try adding food coloring or unsweetened cocoa powder to the cookies and filling to create unique cookies as pictured.

I had a hard time getting the macarons to rise properly. They ended up being a bit flat.
