How to Make Luxemburgeli Macaroons

  1. Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, powdered sugar, and salt. Sift the mixture to remove any lumps. Set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, whip the egg whites with an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
  4. Gradually add the granulated sugar to the egg whites, continuing to whip until stiff, glossy peaks form.
  5. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the meringue in three additions, being careful not to deflate the mixture. Use a spatula and fold from the bottom, rotating the bowl.
  6. Transfer the batter into a piping bag fitted with a round tip. Pipe 1-inch diameter circles onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 1 inch between each macaron.
  7. Let the piped macarons sit at room temperature for 30-60 minutes, or until a skin forms on the surface.
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the macarons are firm to the touch and easily peel off the parchment paper.
  9. Let the macarons cool completely on the baking sheets before carefully peeling them off.
  10. Prepare your favorite buttercream filling (recipe not included, but many options exist online!).
  11. Pair macarons with their corresponding filling and enjoy!
