How to Make Hazelnut Macaroons

  1. Preheat oven to 150°C (300°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a clean, grease-free tall bowl, beat egg whites with salt using an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
  3. Gradually add sugar, one tablespoon at a time, while continuing to beat on high speed. Beat until stiff, glossy peaks form and the sugar is completely dissolved.
  4. Gently fold in the ground hazelnuts using a rubber spatula or large spoon, being careful not to deflate the egg whites. Fold until just combined.
  5. Using a tablespoon, drop rounded mounds of macaroon mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each macaroon.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the macaroons are set but still slightly soft in the center.
  7. Let the macaroons cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. Once cooled, enjoy your delicious homemade Hazelnut Macaroons!
