How to Make Green Tea Macaroons

  1. Sift together 100g icing sugar, 100g finely ground almonds, and 10g matcha powder into a large bowl. Set aside.
  2. In a clean, grease-free bowl, beat 100g egg whites with an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
  3. Gradually add 100g granulated sugar, continuing to beat until stiff, glossy peaks form.
  4. Gently fold the dry almond mixture into the meringue in three additions, being careful not to deflate the egg whites.
  5. Transfer the batter into a piping bag fitted with a round tip. Pipe 2cm diameter discs onto parchment-lined baking sheets, leaving space between each macaron.
  6. Let the macarons rest at room temperature for at least 1 hour, or until a skin forms on the surface.
  7. Bake in a preheated oven at 325°F (160°C) for 10-11 minutes, or until the macarons are firm to the touch.
  8. Let the macarons cool completely on the baking sheets before carefully peeling them off.
  9. Fill cooled macarons with your favorite buttercream or ganache.
