Ingredients
- 2 cups unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/3 cup erythritol or preferred keto sweetener
- 2 large egg whites
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- Optional: 1/2 cup sugar-free dark chocolate for dipping
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the shredded coconut, almond flour, erythritol, egg whites, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir until all ingredients are well combined.
- Form Macaroons: Using a spoon or your hands, form small mounds of the mixture and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about an inch apart.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
- Cool and Optional Chocolate Dip: Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the baking sheet. If desired, melt the sugar-free dark chocolate and dip the cooled macaroons halfway in it. Allow the chocolate to set before serving.
