Tips for Perfect Keto Coconut Macaroons Recipe:
- Room Temperature Eggs: They whip better and create more volume.

- Shape Evenly: Use a cookie scoop for uniform macaroons.
- Perfect Drizzle: Use a fork for thin chocolate streaks or dip the bottoms for a richer treat.
Storage Instructions:
- Room Temperature: Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Refrigerator: Keep in a sealed container for up to a week.
- Freezer: Freeze in a single layer, then transfer to a zip-top bag for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature before serving.
FAQ
- 1. Can I use a different sweetener? Yes! Any granulated keto-friendly sweetener like stevia, allulose, or a monk fruit blend works.
- 2. Why are my macaroons too dry? Overbaking can make them dry. Check them at 15 minutes and remove once golden.
- 3. Can I dip them in chocolate instead of drizzling? Absolutely! Dip the bottom of each cooled macaroon into the melted chocolate for a more decadent treat.
- 4. Do I need to beat the egg whites to stiff peaks? No, soft peaks are enough to hold the macaroons together while keeping them light and chewy.
