Preparation

Prepare two baking trays with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Sift the almond flour and powdered sugar and mix in a deep bowl. In another deep bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until they start to look like meringue. Gradually add the sugar and beat until stiff peaks form. Mix the egg whites with the flour gradually, starting with half of the egg whites and fold with a spatula, then add the other half and finish mixing. The batter should be smooth and without liquid in the center. Place the mixture in a piping bag with a small plain tip. Make small circles of the batter on the baking tray and make sure to leave about 3 cm between each one. Allow them to dry for 60-90 minutes or until touching them does not stick to your finger. Bake the macarons at 120 degrees Celsius for 15-17 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool before peeling off, flip them over. Fill the macarons with your desired filling using a piping bag and place another macaron on top in a sandwich form, done!
