Maple Macaroons

Ingredients

1/2 cup egg whites

1/2 cup sugar

1/2 cup Coombs Family Farms Grade A Dark Color, Robust Taste Maple Syrup

1 tablespoon honey

2 1/2 cups unsweetened coconut flakes

2 1/2 oz all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

 

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 f. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silpat. Set aside. 

In a large stainless steel bowl, combine the egg whites, sugar, syrup, and honey; cook stirring over medium low heat until the mixture is just warm to the touch. 

Add the coconut, flour, and vanilla; cook stirring until the mixture just starts to pull away from the sides of the bowl and looks dry. 

Remove from heat and allow to cool for 30 minutes. 

Using a 1-oz ice cream scoop, dipped in hot water, place balls of coconut mac-aroons 2 inches apart on the baking sheet. 

Bake until golden brown and firm, about 17 minutes. 

Transfer the macaroons to a wire rack and cool. Store in an airtight container in a cool place for up to 5 days.
