How to Make Zimtmakronen Cinnamon Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 160°C (320°F). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup ground hazelnuts, 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon, and 1 tablespoon vanilla sugar. Set aside.
  3. In a clean, grease-free bowl, beat 3 large egg whites with 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice and a pinch of salt using an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
  4. Gradually add 1 cup granulated sugar to the egg whites, 1/3 at a time, beating well after each addition until glossy and stiff.
  5. Gently fold in the hazelnut mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Using two teaspoons, drop small mounds of dough (about 1 tablespoon each) onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
  7. Top each cookie with one hazelnut half.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Keep a close eye on them as ovens vary.
  9. Let the cookies cool completely on the baking sheets before serving. Enjoy!
