Almond macaron

I had a craving for French macarons today but it's not something that we just have at home so I decided to make some myself and I also had a couple of egg whites in the fridge from making mayonnaise the other day that I wanted to do something with. Found this Paleo friendly recipe and gave it a go. I only made the top parts and no filling, but they are yummy to eat just as they are. I'm sure you can make them a bit prettier than mine as well I guess.

Ingredients
makes about 15

300 ml almond flour

1/8 tsp ground cinnamon

1 tsp lemon zest

2 egg whites

60 ml raw honey (I used rice malt syrup)

1 tsp lemon juice

Preheat oven to 120 degrees Celsius.

Mix cinnamon and lemon zest in a medium bowl.

Add honey and lemon juice and stir vigorously to blend thoroughly.

Beat egg whites and fold in to the mixture.

Add almond flour and mix thoroughly but carefully.

Line an oven tray with baking paper.

Use a teaspoon to scoop small portions of the batter onto the baking paper. 

Bake in the middle of the oven for about 30 minutes.
