Coconut Macaroon Recipe With Almonds Food

LIGHT AND FLUFFY COCONUT MACAROONS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Grease two baking sheets.
• Whisk egg whites in a bowl until frothy; stir in almond extract.
• Combine coconut, sugar, flour, and salt in a large bowl.
• Lightly stir egg white mixture into coconut mixture to form a batter.
• Scoop batter by the tablespoon and drop onto prepared baking sheet.
• Bake cookies in the preheated oven until edges start to brown, about 20 minutes.
• Transfer cookies to wire racks to cool.

COCONUT-ALMOND MACAROONS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• Mix all dry ingredients well in a medium bowl.
• In a separate bowl combine egg whites, cream of tartar and coconut (or almond) extract. Beat them with a standing mixer or electric hand mixer until they form stiff peaks.
• Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring softly until all ingredients are combined.
• Place one tablespoon at a time onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving 2 inches in between macaroons. Flatten the top of each macaroon slightly with the back of a spoon or with your fingers. Press one whole almond into the top of each cookie if you desire.
• Cook for 15 minutes or until they are becoming slightly browned around the edges and are dry to the touch. Allow to cool before eating.

ALMOND-COCONUT MACAROONS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with a nonstick baking mat or parchment. Whisk together sugar and egg white in a large bowl. Stir in the remaining ingredients.
• Form dough into eight 2-tablespoon mounds, and drop each onto sheet, 2 inches apart. Bake macaroons until golden-brown on bottoms and edges, about 15 minutes. Let cool on sheets for 5 minutes. Transfer to wire racks, and let cool.

ALMOND COCONUT MACAROONS

Steps:

• Preheat Oven to 325 degrees.
• Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Pat the cherries with paper towels to remove excess syrup, and cut in half.
• Toasting Coconut: Heat up a non-stick 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat, spread coconut evenly in pan, and stirring constantly, watch as they start to turn golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Set aside.
• Break almond paste into small pieces and place in medium-size bowl.
• Add sugar and mix with almond paste until evenly distributed. I find a pastry cutter works really well for this.
• Add egg whites and mix well. You can use a fork for this.
• Mix in coconut until evenly distributed.
• Drop almond mixture by rounded teaspoonfuls onto lined baking sheets about one inch apart. I always fit three across and six rows lengthwise.
• Press cherry half gently into middle of cookie.
• Bake 18 to 20 minutes or until lightly browned. Check after 15 minutes.
• Cool completely on the baking sheet on wire racks. Peel macaroons off parchment paper when completely cool. I have a Pampered Chef mini-spatula that slides under them and removes them easily. They just need to be cooled before you attempt to remove them.
• Store in airtight container.
• Hint #1. To remove almond paste from can, open both ends of the can, using lid on one end to easily push out the paste. (Be sure to buy almond paste, not almond filling. I made that mistake once!).
• Hint #2. You can use the coconut without toasting it, but it will look and taste a little different -- but still good!
• Hint #3. The original recipe never said to beat the egg whites, but I always scramble them with a fork in a small bowl until they're a little foamy.

COCONUT MACAROONS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Combine the coconut, condensed milk, and vanilla in a large bowl. Whip the egg whites and salt on high speed in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment until they make medium-firm peaks. Carefully fold the egg whites into the coconut mixture. Drop the batter onto sheet pans lined with parchment paper using either a 1 3/4-inch diameter ice cream scoop, or 2 teaspoons. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until golden brown. Cool and serve.

COCONUT MACAROONS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Line 2 baking sheets with waxed paper or foil.
• Spray waxed paper or foil with vegetable cooking spray.
• In medium mixing bowl, using an electric mixer set on high speed, beat egg whites with salt until frothy.
• Gradually add confectioners sugar, beating until stiff peaks form.
• Fold in coconut, flour, vanilla,& almond extract.
• Using a pastry bag with a large star or using a tablespoon, pipe or drop about 1 tablespoon of batter per macaroon, 1 inch apart, onto prepared baking sheets.
• Bake macaroons until just brown, about 20 minutes per batch.
• Place baking sheets on wire rack, cool slightly.
• Using spatula, transfer macaroons to rack and cool completely.
• Serve or store in airtight containers.

COCONUT-ALMOND MACAROONS

Steps:

• Line three baking sheets with baking parchment, and pre-heat the oven to 160ºC.
• Beat the egg whites with the pinch of salt until they form soft peaks.
• Add the sugar, vanilla, coconut and ground almonds, and stir in well. You need quite a stiff mixture, so add a bit more coconut and/or almond if your mixture is too slack. If you like very sweet things, you may wish to add more sugar as well - taste a tiny bit to see if it is sweet enough for your liking.
• Divide the mixture into 24 blobs on your lined baking sheets, and pat into shape, pressing half a glacé cherry into the top of each blob. The macaroons will spread out when cooked, so leave a bit of space between them.
• Bake the macaroons for 15 minutes or so, until they are nicely golden brown. Remove from the oven and leave to cool on their trays. They will firm up as they cool.
• Peel off the paper, and enjoy!
