For two flavors, you would do my usual recipe, but you split it in half. If you're making mango for example, you split my mango recipe in half. So the recipe would look like this:
75g almond flour
68g powdered sugar
7g freeze dried mangoes
25g egg whites
pinch of salt
And you put this in one bowl.
For another flavor, for example red velvet, you would split my red velvet recipe in half as well. So the recipe would look like this:
75g almond flour
73g powdered sugar
4g cocoa powder
25g egg whites
pinch of salt
For the meringue, you would make it as normal, but instead of putting the whole meringue in one bowl, you divide the meringue into two portions: 80g and 80g. The total weight of the meringue is 160g or so, so just weigh your bowls, tare it, and then put in 80g of meringue. Then bake as normal!:)
For three flavors in one batch, you would do my usual recipe, but split it in thirds. So if you're making three flavors: mint chip, red velvet, and mango, the recipe would look like this split in three bowls:
50g almond flour
50g powdered sugar
17g egg whites
small amount of mint extract
pinch of salt
50g almond flour
47g powdered sugar
5g freeze dried mangoes
17g egg whites
pinch of salt
50g almond flour
48g powdered sugar
2g cocoa powder
17g egg whites
pinch of salt
Make the meringue as usual, and weigh out 55g meringue for each one.
Simple, right? And for four flavors, just split the half recipe in half. :) So you would be making about 38g almond flour, 38g powdered sugar, and about 12-13g egg whites. And for meringue, it would be 40g.
Hope you find this useful!:D
Hello Natalie, can you tell how to adjust the recipes to make mocha macaroons? Should i reduce the almond flour or the icing sugar to add the coffee powder?
ReplyDeleteHi Natalie! I had tried and tried the french method several times, sometimes it would work and sometimes it wouldn't. Today I tried your italian method recipe et voila! perfect macarons. However, towards the third batch I made (the first two I cut the recipe in half like you said, the third I cut it in the third part) my red velvet had little feet, and after 17 min in the oven at 300F they were still undercooked. Left them for 2 min more and they still wouldn't cook perfectly so that I could have a flat bottom. Do you have any advise? Thank you!!
ReplyDeletemaybe you undermixed it? haha glad you liked the recipe :)
DeleteHi!
ReplyDeleteHow do you separate the eggwhites into exact quantities?
If one egg's eggwhite is 28grams..I find it very difficult (altmost impossible) to separate it into 2x14grams.
Thanks :)
I just separate it with my hands haha
DeleteOh....dear...you are brilliant. ...thanks for your recipe.
ReplyDeleteHi Natalie! I tried using 2 flavors for one batch but my second flavor ended up dry by the time I finished mixing and piping the first flavor! This caused the second flavor to be incredibly thick and hard to pipe out even when I tried to mix it again. They ended up cracking. How do you avoid this? Thank you!!
ReplyDeleteMade these last night and they were perfect! I only tried one, the rest are in the freezer but I'm bringing them out and sharing today. Thanks!!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to try this out with flavors strawberry, chocolate, and red velvet.
ReplyDeleteHello! I want to learn the art of macarons...can you possibly tell me the conversions of the splitting of the batters in cups, tablesppons, teaspoons etc.
ReplyDeleteIDK why it put me as "unknown" I commented as my email name :(
ReplyDeleteI just purchased your recipe book and I LOVE it! I have never made macarons before but I am excited to try! Question: what do you mean by “flattening the dry ingredients” on page 10?? Thank you!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for writing such a good article, I stumbled onto your blog and read a few post. I like your style of writing...
