Cooking Tools Required

Baking sheet, Electric Hand Mixer, Measuring cups and spoons, Mixing bowls, parchment paper, Spatula

Ingredients

  • 4 egg large whites only
  • 1/4 cup erythritol
  • 2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper and lightly oil with coconut oil. Set aside.
  • Place the egg whites and erythritol in a mixing bowl, and using a hand mixer, beat egg whites until a stiff peak forms. You can add 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar or a pinch of salt to help the egg white firm up.
  • When the egg whites are firm (when you can turn the bowl upside-down and the egg whites don't fall), use a silicone spatula to gently fold in the shredded coconut and vanilla into the fluffy egg whites mixture.
  • The batter should be quite dense, saturated by the amount of coconut but still easy to shape into balls if pressed into a cookie scoop. If too liquid (too much egg whites), add an extra 1/2 cup of shredded coconut.
  • Use a cookie dough scoop to scoop out the batter, then pack it firmly in the scoop to form a coconut ball that holds well together.
  • Now, scoop out the batter onto the cookie sheet, don't flatten the macaroons, and repeat the steps above, leaving half a thumb of space between each macaroon.
  • You should make 24 macaroons with the batter. Bake them on two cookie sheets separately at 350°F (180°C) for 10 minutes, one batch at a time, leaving the extra cookie sheet on the kitchen benchtop while the first one is baking.
