How to Make Light Fluffy Coconut Macaroons

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk egg whites until frothy. Stir in almond extract.
  3. In a separate large bowl, combine shredded coconut, sugar, flour, and salt.
  4. Gently fold the egg white mixture into the coconut mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 1/2 inches between each macaroon.
  6. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  7. Let the macaroons cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
