#lowcarb – Low Carb Coconut Macaroons… Lush
Having a craving for cake on Sunday afternoon, I thought I’d give this a shot, knowing how simple Coconut Macaroons are. And this is the end result. While they would probably be even better with the bases dipped in dark chocolate, they did a great job of satisfying the cake cravings at only 1.6g of carbs per macaroon!
200g Dessicated Coconut
4 egg whites
50g Stevia
1 tsp vanilla essence
1 tbsp Ground Almonds
Place all the ingredients except the coconut into a bowl and whisk until fairly stiff.
Fold in the coconut.
Use a soup spoon to scoop out the macaroon mix onto a baking try covered in grease proof paper. I made 10.
Place in an oven at 160 Celsius for 15-20mins.
Remove when golden brown and leave to cool.
When cooled, you may want to dip the bottoms in melted dark chocolate.
Contains 141 calories per macaroon, 1.6g of carbs, 2.6g of protein and 13.5g of fat.
