Ingredients
  

  • 100 g almond flour
  • 100 g powdered sugar
  • 75 g egg whites about 2 large eggs
  • 50 g granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon pumpkin puree
  • Buttercream or cream cheese filling for assembling

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a mixing bowl, sift together the almond flour and powdered sugar. This ensures a smooth macaron shell.
  • In a separate bowl, whip the egg whites until frothy. Gradually add the granulated sugar and continue to whip until stiff peaks form.
  • Gently fold in the pumpkin pie spice, vanilla extract, and pumpkin puree into the meringue mixture.
  • Carefully add the almond flour mixture to the meringue, and fold until well combined. Be cautious not to deflate the batter.
  • Transfer the batter to a piping bag fitted with a round tip. Pipe small circles onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between each. Tap the baking sheet on the counter to remove air bubbles.
  • Let the macarons rest at room temperature for 30-60 minutes until they form a skin. You should be able to lightly touch the surface without it sticking to your finger.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes. Rotate the sheets halfway through to ensure even baking.
  • Once baked, allow the macarons to cool completely before removing them from the parchment paper.
  • Pair the macaron shells with your favorite buttercream or cream cheese filling, and sandwich them together.
