Ingredients

Time Needed

Prep Time: 30 minutes
Cook Time: 18 minutes
Total Time: 48 minutes

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit (150 degrees Celsius).
Using parchment paper, line a baking sheet.
Sift together the almond flour and powdered sugar in a medium mixing bowl.
Separately, in a large mixing bowl, whisk the egg whites until foamy.
Beat in the granulated sugar and cream of tartar until stiff peaks form.
Fold in the almond flour mixture until thoroughly combined.
Mix in the lemon extract and yellow food coloring until well combined.
Fill a piping bag with a round tip with the batter.
Pipe 1-inch (25-cm) circles onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving 2 inches (5 cm) between each circle.
To release any air bubbles, gently tap the baking sheet on the counter.
Allow the macarons to cool for 20-30 minutes at room temperature, or until a skin forms on top.
Bake the macarons for 15-18 minutes, or until the tops are set and the bottoms are golden.
Allow the macarons to cool completely on the baking sheet before removing them and filling with the filling of your choice.
