AIP COCONUT MACAROON KISSES

Some of my clients that are following a grain free diet often complain about their frustration in finding paleo dessert recipes that are actually good. Today's AIP Coconut Macaroon Kisses are the solution for those cravings! I totally get it, when you are in the mood for a treat, you want something delicious that can blown you away. And I know that most of the times, when you look for paleo desserts at the grocery store, you can only find treats that are mostly made with almond meal and therefore they are not suitable for those with nut allergies. Finding the perfect dessert that can suit everybody's allergies can be quite tough. As always, making your own paleo dessert recipes is the key to success.In this AIP Coconut Macaroon recipe you'll find all the most delicious, grain and dairy free ingredients, that marry each other in an explosion of flavor! You want a quick, fun fact to prove you how delicious these AIP Coconut Macaroon Kisses are?! Get this: the day I baked them I was in Cremona, Italy and I brought them to the pop up office my team rented for 2 weeks (yes, since we are digital, we can do this and lots of other cool things, but this is a different story ;) ... After they tried them, everybody's biggest complain was: "Why didn't you make more of them?! Do you think it's fair to tease us and only let us have a couple of pastries each?" Man, they were upset! ...But I can't say I wasn't flattered!! :)What Makes this Macaron Recipe Special? Coconut Flour & a Touch of Italy! I think what makes these grain free macaroons so special is the combination of the typical coconut treat with the Italian tradition of "Baci" (that in Italian means "kisses"). These sandwiched cookies (that are basically kissing each other) are kept together by a delicious prune & chocolate filling that's the the perfect contrast to the sweetness of the vanilla e coconut flavor of the spongy macaroons. In addition, when creating this paleo version of macaroons, I used some of my favorite coconut products like coconut flour and coconut oil. I find that the amazing sweetness that they have naturally is they key to keep this recipe very low in sugar, but highly delectable nonetheless! Whether you are on a AIP, grain free paleo diet or not, these Coconut Macaroon Kisses make for a deliciously healthy dessert you can impress your friends and family with! NOTE: This recipe makes 12 macaroons, but if you want to play safe and not hear anybody complaining (just like I did)... double the sizes! I am sure they won't go to waste ;)I hope you enjoyed this treat as much as I (and my team) did, and for more recipes, guides and tutorials about gluten, sugar and dairy free baking, make sure to check out my EBook "Italian Desserts Made Simple" that features over 75 amazing desserts that you can enjoy with no guilt!!

AIP coconut macaroon kisses recipes are a perfect sweet treat for those following the Autoimmune Protocol (AIP) diet. These recipes use only AIP-compliant ingredients, which means they are free from gluten, dairy, grains, soy, and processed sugar. These coconut macaroon kisses are a delicious and healthy way to satisfy a sweet craving.

Ingredients:

Coconut Flakes:
The main ingredient in these coconut macaroon kisses is unsweetened shredded coconut flakes. Coconut flakes provide a good source of dietary fiber, antioxidants, and healthy fats.
Coconut Oil:
Coconut oil is a staple ingredient in AIP diet as it is a rich source of healthy fats, aids in digestion, and boosts metabolism. It is used in these coconut macaroon kisses to bind the coconut flakes and add a rich flavor.
Maple Syrup:
Maple syrup is a natural sweetener that is allowed on the AIP diet. It is used to sweeten the macaroons and balance the flavors.
Vanilla Extract:
The vanilla extract is added for aroma and sweetness. It is important to use pure vanilla extract as many others contain alcohol, which is not allowed on the AIP diet.
Coconut Milk:
Coconut milk is used to enhance the flavor and texture of these coconut macaroon kisses. Ensure that it is unsweetened and is free from additives.
Sea Salt:
Sea salt is used in small amounts to bring out the natural flavors of the ingredients and balance the sweetness.

Preparation Method:

Step 1 - Mixing the Ingredients:
Combine the unsweetened shredded coconut flakes, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt in a bowl. Mix the ingredients thoroughly until they are evenly distributed.
Step 2 - Forming the Macaroons:
Using a tablespoon, shape the mixture into small balls (about 1-inch in diameter), and place them onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Press the balls down slightly to flatten them and form the macaroon shape. Repeat until all the mixture has been used.
Step 3 - Baking:
Preheat the oven to 350 F (175 C). Place the baking sheet into the oven and bake for approximately 15 minutes or until the macaroons are golden brown. Remove from the oven and let them cool for 10 minutes.
Step 4 - Adding the Kiss:
Once the macaroons have cooled, melt a small amount of dark chocolate or carob chips (allowed on the AIP diet) in a double boiler or microwave. Dip the bottom of each macaroon into the melted chocolate/carob and place it back onto the parchment paper. Place the baking sheet into the fridge until the chocolate/carob sets.

Conclusion:

AIP coconut macaroon kisses recipes are a delicious and healthy way to satisfy a sweet tooth. They are easy to make and require only a few simple ingredients that are allowed on the AIP diet. With just a few simple steps, you can create a batch of these tasty treats and enjoy them guilt-free. Try different variations by adding nuts, spices, or dark chocolate chips to enhance the flavors.
Coconut macaroons are a delicious dessert that is perfect to cap off any meal. AIP coconut macaroon kisses recipes are a one-of-a-kind recipe that is a great option for those following the Autoimmune Protocol (AIP) diet. These coconut macaroon kisses are gluten-free, dairy-free, and refined sugar-free, making them a perfect addition to any AIP meal plan. However, to make the best AIP coconut macaroon kisses, there are some valuable tips that you need to keep in mind.

Tip 1: Use High-Quality Ingredients

When making AIP coconut macaroon kisses, it is important to use high-quality ingredients. This means using organic, non-GMO, and preservative-free ingredients. For example, when it comes to coconut, make sure to use organic shredded coconut that is unsweetened. This will help to ensure that your macaroons are not only delicious but also nutritious.

Tip 2: Use a Food Processor

When making AIP coconut macaroon kisses, it is important to use a food processor to blend all the ingredients together. This will help to ensure that the coconut mixture is evenly mixed, and the macaroons come out perfect every time. Moreover, it will save you time that you would otherwise spend on mixing the ingredients by hand.

Tip 3: Use a Silicone Baking Mat

A silicone baking mat is an important accessory that you should have in your kitchen when making AIP coconut macaroon kisses. A silicone baking mat is non-stick, making it easy for you to place your macaroons on it without sticking. Additionally, it is heat-resistant and easy to clean, which means that it will last you for a long time, saving you money in the long run.

Tip 4: Use Coconut Oil Instead of Butter

When making AIP coconut macaroon kisses, it is important to use coconut oil instead of butter. This is because coconut oil is AIP-friendly, and it is rich in healthy fats that are essential for your body. Coconut oil also has a natural sweetness to it, which makes it a great substitute for sugar.

Tip 5: Use Maple Syrup or Honey as Sweeteners

AIP coconut macaroon kisses recipes do not use refined sugars. Instead, they use natural sweeteners like maple syrup or honey, which are AIP-friendly. These sweeteners will give your macaroons a delicious taste that is not overpowering.

Tip 6: Let the Mixture Sit in the Fridge Before Baking

When making AIP coconut macaroon kisses, it is important to let the mixture sit in the fridge for at least an hour before baking. This will help to firm up the mixture, making it easier to shape the macaroons. It will also help the macaroons to retain their shape during baking.

Tip 7: Shape the Macaroons Using a Melon Baller

When shaping your AIP coconut macaroon kisses, it is important to use a melon baller. A melon baller will help you to form perfect balls that are consistent in size. Additionally, it will make the process faster and easier, saving you time and effort.

Tip 8: Bake at a Lower Temperature

When baking AIP coconut macaroon kisses, it is important to bake them at a lower temperature than traditional macaroons. This is because AIP macaroon kisses are more delicate and can easily burn at higher temperatures. Therefore, it is recommended that you bake them at a temperature between 325°F to 350°F for 15 to 20 minutes.

Tip 9: Let the Macaroons Cool Before Removing from the Mat

After baking your AIP coconut macaroon kisses, it is important to let them cool for a few minutes on the silicone mat before removing them. This is important because the macaroons are delicate when hot and can easily break. Allowing them to cool down will help them to be firm, making it easier to remove them from the mat.

Tip 10: Store in an Airtight Container

When storing your AIP coconut macaroon kisses, it is important to store them in an airtight container. This will help prevent them from getting stale or absorbing moisture from the surrounding air. Additionally, storing them in an airtight container will help to keep them fresh for several days.
Conclusion
Making AIP coconut macaroon kisses is an easy and delicious way to enjoy dessert while still following the AIP diet. By following the tips discussed above, you can make perfect AIP coconut macaroon kisses every time. Remember to use high-quality ingredients, use a food processor, shape the macaroons using a melon baller, and bake them at a lower temperature. Once baked, let them cool and then store them in an airtight container for several days of delicious enjoyment.
