Keto 3-Ingredient Coconut Macaroons
These coconut macaroons are one of the easiest 3-ingredient Keto dessert recipes ever. They are chewy, slightly sweet, and satisfying. This recipe can be prepared in just 30 minutes, with only 10 minutes of active prep.
How to get perfectly beaten egg whites?
To beat egg whites properly, there are a couple of points to consider. Firstly, use a glass or metal bowl. Plastic bowls tend to have oils stuck to them, which would prevent the egg whites from aerating. Secondly, wipe the clean bowl with a paper towel soaked in vinegar. This ensures the bowl is clean, and the acid helps stabilize the egg whites. Lastly, don't overwhip the egg whites; stop once you start seeing defined strokes.
How can you customize this recipe?
Keto 3-ingredient recipes are an excellent option for busy people, but you can still add your special touch to them. These coconut macaroons are plain and taste purely of coconut. You can add vanilla extract, almond extract, lemon zest, cinnamon, or orange zest to the mixture. After baking, you can dip the macaroons in melted chocolate or Keto caramel sauce.
How to store these macaroons?
Once baked and cooled, transfer the macaroons to an airtight container. They will stay fresh for three days at room temperature or five days in the fridge.

Ingredients
Raw egg, white
3 medium
Desiccated / Shredded Coconut (Unsweetened)
2 cup
Powdered Erythritol (Icing Sugar)
0.5 cup
Recipe Steps
steps 4
30 min
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 160C/320 F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Separate the egg whites from the yolks, and transfer the whites to a large bowl. Store the yolks in the fridge for another recipe.Step 2
Start whipping the egg whites on medium speed for 2 minutes. Gradually add the sweetener while beating. Increase the speed to high and whip until you get stiff peaks.Step 3
Fold in the shredded coconut, careful not to knock out too much air. Take a one-tablespoon measuring spoon and scoop out small portions of the cookies, shaping them into balls as you go. Place them on your baking tray about 1/2 inch (1 cm) apart.Step 4
Bake for 15-18 minutes. The bottoms and edges should be golden brown, while the centers should be chewy. Allow the macaroons to cool fully before serving.

Would love to try these, but can anyone recommend another sweetener? I won't use erythritol because of health concerns. Thanks.

I think powdered allulose would work well. You can put granulated allulose in a high speed blender/food processor to make it powdered. It is one of the healthier keto sweeteners out there and may even help with blood sugar control.It is about 1/3 less sweet than table sugar.

Great receipe, but 1/2 cup of icing sugar is way too much. I put in 2tbsp of icing sugar and it was just right. I got 16 macaroons out of this recipe. 🥰

I believe there is a minor error on the ingredient list "egg whites only, cooked" Meringue which is beaten egg whites is not cooked.

My egg white never got too peaks just a mess

If you used carton egg whites, those don’t peak. (Kirkland brand at least, didn’t for me).

You can try letting your eggs come to room temperature and make sure you don’t get any yolk in the whites.

That will likely be due your mixing. You have to mix the egg whites and sweetener together on a high speed for like 5-7 minutes for the egg whites to peak
