One egg recipe

I am by no means an expert on macarons, but they usually do turn out pretty good. These macs are one egg recipe from KG's blog. They turn out very well, and i end up with three yummy batches - Rosewater macs, Dark Choc Ganache with Peppermint macs and Lemon Cheesecake macs.

Ingredients

30g egg whites - i don't aged them

20g caster sugar

36g ground almond

54g icing sugar

Method

1. Prepare your baking trays with baking or parchment paper and a piping bag.

2. Sift almond flour with icing sugar, set aside.

3. Start beating egg whites until they are bubbly and frothy,then, slowly add in sugar. When all the sugar is gone, whisk faster. Yes, i used hand whisk :)

4. When you have a soft peak thick meringue, add the colour.

5. You can add the almond icing sugar mix into the meringue in 3 additions - i just pour them altogether.

6. Mix the meringue and almond mix well until you get a mass that is glossy and flows a ribbon consistency.

7. Pour into a piping bag and pipe the batter, with about an inch gap between them. The batter will spread a bit, not much!

8. Allow to dry until a skin forms.

9. Bake at 150C for about 10 minutes...depends on size of your macarons. If everything goes well, your happy feet will appear after 5 minutes (about) after you pop them batter into the oven.

Happy trying! :)
