How to Make Soft Coconut Macaroons
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup (120g) all-purpose flour, ¾ cup (150g) granulated sugar, ¼ teaspoon salt, and 2 cups (200g) sweetened shredded coconut.
- Add 2 large egg whites and 1 teaspoon almond extract to the bowl. Stir until just combined.
- Gently fold in ½ cup (60g) slivered almonds. Mix until evenly distributed.
- Drop rounded teaspoons of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each macaroon.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown and the centers are set. Avoid overbaking.
- Let the macaroons cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
