I made these!
I confess that I do not remember exactly what I did and that I do not measure, so if you are a stickler for accuracy, then I apologize right now! I think they came out pretty well and tasted almost exactly like traditional macaroons.
On the Whole Life Challenge, we should avoid grains and processed sugars for eight weeks. I used to make coconut macaroons fairly regularly, so it was pretty easy to come up with a recipe that would be WLC approved (dates instead of the sugar, coconut flour instead of the wheat flour, etc.).
Let me know in the comments if you decide to give it a try! :)
3-4 Organic Mejool Dates
12 Drops Stevia
1 Tsp Vanilla
4 Egg Whites
3-4 Tbsp Coconut Flour
2-3 Tbsp Coconut Water (or regular water)
1 C Shredded Unsweetend Coconut
Heat oven to 350 and cover baking sheet with parchment paper
Chop/process dates. Place in bowl with vanilla and stevia and set aside
Beat egg whites to stiff peaks
Fold in remaiining ingredients and mix thoroughly
Shpae macaroons and place on sheet
Bake aout 20 minutes or until top looks golden
Cool on metal rack
