Best Nut Free Macarons Recipes

NUT-FREE MACARONS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a bowl, beat egg whites until frothy.
• Gradually add the granulated sugar until stiff peaks form.
• In a separate bowl, whisk the flour and powdered sugar together. Then, sift the flour and powdered sugar mixture into the egg white mixture.
• Add the vanilla extract, and gel food coloring if you want the macarons to be colored.
• Gently fold all the ingredients together.
• Transfer the batter into a piping bag with a rounded tip.
• Pipe the macarons onto a baking sheet with parchment paper. Gently tap the baking sheet on a flat surface a few times to release air bubbles.
• Let the macarons sit at room temperature for about 45 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 280°F.
• Bake the macarons for 17-20 minutes.
• Allow the macarons to cool for 10 minutes, then transfer the macarons on to a cooling rack.
• Add a dollop of buttercream or any frosting of your choice to one of the macaron shells, then top it with another macaron shell to create a sandwich. Repeat with the remaining shells and frosting.
• For best results, allow the macarons to "bloom" for about 24 hours.
• Enjoy!

NUT-FREE MACARONS

Steps:

• Sift confectioners' sugar into a medium bowl. Sift in coconut flour.
• Beat egg whites in a separate bowl using an electric mixer until white and foamy. Add white sugar slowly. Beat until mixture is glossy and forms stiff peaks.
• 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.
• 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.
• 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.
• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
• Bake in the preheated oven until tops are firm, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Puree raspberries in a food processor, adding water if using frozen raspberries. Strain out the seeds using a fine-mesh strainer.
• Beat butter and 1/2 the confectioners' sugar in a bowl using an electric mixer until combined. Add the remaining 1/2 and beat until creamy. Add raspberry puree and heavy cream; mix well to make the frosting.
• 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.
