- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 ½ cups powdered sugar
- 3 large egg whites (room temperature)
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup fresh peaches (pureed)
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Additional powdered sugar for filling
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Sift together almond flour and powdered sugar twice to achieve a fine texture.
- In a separate bowl, whip egg whites until foamy; gradually add granulated sugar until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the dry ingredients into the whipped egg whites until fully combined, being careful not to deflate the mixture.
- Pipe small circles onto prepared baking sheets; let them rest for about 30 minutes until they form a skin.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes until firm yet slightly soft when touched; allow them to cool completely on baking sheets.
- For the filling, whip heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until fluffy; gently fold in pureed peaches.
- Assemble by sandwiching the peach filling between two macaron shells.
