Made my first macaroons!

 

Hello sunshine, I hope all of you are enjoying summer! After a long period of rain we are having fantastic weather here in Hamburg! It’s actually a bit too hot for me, but I won’t complain ; )

If you’re on Pinterest, you know how addictive it can be and how much fun it is! I love finding new recipes or food inspiration (check out my Pinterest boards here if you like). The other day I saw a pretty looking picture of raspberry coconut macaroons and since it looked like an easy recipe I tried it a day later. They turned out wonderfully – just as addictive as Pinterest : )ย You should really make them as well!!

Form little balls and place them on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Bake at 300 ยฐF / 150 ยฐC for about 20-25 minutes until they start to turn slightly golden.

Remove from the oven and let them cool down for about 30 minutes.

    Can you answer a couple questions about the recipe?

    1 – What is coconut fat? Is it the solid stuff in canned coconut milk?

    2 – For the shredded coconut, is it sweetened or unsweetened?

    Thanks!

      Hi Emily,
      maybe I should have rather written coconut \”oil\” – sometimes I translate directly from my german. : ) You can buy it either in solid or liquid form in the supermarket (it\’s not the solid stuff in canned coconut milk).
      As for the shredded coconut, I used the unsweetened version. I\’ll add that to the blog post! : )
