How to make Macarons at home + recipe

[Sara5029]

A quick tip: I would add a little bit of sugar and almond powder at a time, so mix and add, mix and add, mix and add. That's a little bit easier than adding everything in at once.:)

[chalitzaa]

They look so perfect ._.

[NuruLMendes]

its Piping bag ;)

[MzKolohe819]

Hi,

I would like to try to make this for Easter and I don't know the conversions from grams to cups. Cause I seen online that there are different ways especially when using flour and sugar their different.

[Neqritahh]

@AdriannaHot We Have Nutella In The States.! :)

[ArtIsALifeStyle]

it's called a piping bag:)

[AdriannaHot]

And my friends love nutella, so I'll try!

[AdriannaHot]

I think you only find nutella in Europe cuz I've never seen it in the states, but I've seen it in Spain alot

[Rumpelstilskin7]

@AdriannaHot That's strange. We have lots of it here in Mexico. :)

[TheMakeupgirl123]

hi may i ask you what kind of oven your using?

will it grow feet when i use regular oven?

[Harmonica401]

do u have to be exact all the way to tha grams?

[Jessicaisrealawesome]

Oh, I never thought about just using nutella as the filling! That seems smart! I guess you could do that for cakes, cookies, or macarons! Anything really.

[ASEOH]

I just made them... Didn't turn out so well... The recipe is ok, no fail (I figure out is better to let them rest a moment in the pipe. sooo much cuter!!!!), but when I pipe them out once they were sooo thin and when I tap the owen plate they flattend a lot more... and hat to pipe them out AGAIN (but letting them rest in the pipe....), After they went perfect, But no feet... Too sad... but my macarons always stick in the paper I believe is the paper, what can I do?

[cherrychuckles]

You did a really good job. Was the texture grainy because of the almond meal? Can almond meal be sifted or should it just be processed more? Thank you, you made it look easy :)

[lillanilo]

@cherrychuckles Thank you! :) Yes the texture was grainy because of the almond, I should have sifted it (nowadays I always sift it). Even if you buy almond powder and don't make it yourself, you still should sift it because even the smallest lumps will show and make them look grainy. I will make a macarons tips and tricks video soon, I should put that in there - thanks for putting the idea in my head! :) good luck :) xx Nilo

[tracetis]

Hi. I find your video is very helpful for a beginner like me. I haven't tried yet, but I'm very confused with all the recipes and tricks on the internet bcos it said that to make macarons is very tricky with the technique to beat the egg white + sugar. How long should i beat the egg white until I can add the sugar into the mixture? thanks for answering!

[lillanilo]

@tracetis Hi! Hm I understand your question but it's kind of difficult to explain... it's very much indeed about experience, you will learn by doing it. But I will try to explain! Whip the eggwhite by itself until its ALMOST meringue-like, this should take you about...I don't know, a minute or two? If you look at my video you can see the texture I'm talking about when I'm whipping the eggwhite, That's what it should look like. I hope this helpen?! Don't give up, you'll get it right!

[cupcakehuh]

is there a substitute for almond flour?

[lillanilo]

@cupcakehuh No =/ :(

[xkyasurinxxx]

@lillanilo ground sunflower seeds

[cupcakehuh]

is there a substitute for almond flour?

[cupcakehuh]

is there a substitute for almond flour?

[DorrisTheCatLady]

when i made them in college, we added the colour in before the almond powder, much easier.

[lillanilo]

@DorrisTheCatLady very true indeed, good tip, thank you :)

[syazbenadams]

how sweet is this macaroons gonna be.? cos my family don't like a too sweet. :)

[lillanilo]

@syazbenadams they are very sweet, at least with nutella filling. I guess you could try different fillings that aren't that sweet =)

[simplysweetyummybake]

ive made these before you need to fold them more next time bcs the batter looks lumpy...

[CheerNMakeup]

Hvor kjøpte du melet du brukte?

[jlouise1405]

Weird question, but what brand mixer is that? I think that is what I used to have and it was the best!

[saudari89]

can i make it without any almond powder?

[lillanilo]

@saudari89 No...

[AlbertePedersen]

@saudari89 You can take some almond and put it in the oven about 15 min. and then you can put it in your food processor until it looks like powder.... if you understand

[saudari89]

@AlbertePedersen thanks. ill try :)

[wafiydeejah]

at what degree??



[TwoOldCrabs]

those look delicious! great job  :)))

[x3BooItsMe]

How long t bake it ? And at what degree??

[RaeLynnShikure]

@x3BooItsMe Read the description

[DestinySky16]

i tried making it three times already >.< i think the hardest part is getting the perfect texture of the egg whites.... i either make the peak too soft or too hard =/

[saydabelkefi]

merci je vais essayer

[dakidzify]

@lillanilo should you put them in the freezer afterwards?

[lillanilo]

@dakidzify hmm no there is no need to do that? you mean to cool the down? no you can just leave them in room temperature until they are cool :)

[Lindaeroonaa]

lol good:)

[celineebieber]

do you have to do the nuttella filling with that 'pipe' hahaha you know what i mean.. or can you do it with a spoon to or something like that?

[lillanilo]

@celineebieber no you don't have to use the piping bag, you can just use a spoon or a knife or something haha that works too :)

[trinefj11]

Du skal vende æggehviderne ikke røre når du blander

[TheHaterzbehatin]

I love Nutella, I eat it by itself all the time

[lillanilo]

@TheHaterzbehatin haha yeah its so yummy!

[jannmechille]

Do these macarons melt in your mouth?

[lillanilo]

@jannmechille hmmm difficult question.. I wouldn't exactly say "melt" but.. they are very yummy =P I think it depends on your personal taste, some people say they melt in their mouth but I don't know.. I think you have to try them for yourself to decide :)

[jannmechille]

@lillanilo Hmm, okay, I'll try them out! :D Thank you for this awesome recipe! ♥

[eleenaleelee]

i love ur video...tq u so much for sharing!!:)

[lillanilo]

@eleenaleelee thank you! :) you're welcome, I'm glad I could help

[NimSudsiri]

Thank you for your video!,...One problem I have is my Macarons became soft the next morning (I made it last night and it was perfect crispy out side and little chewy in the middle)

Did I do something wrong ?

Thanks

[lillanilo]

@NimSudsiri hmm, it could be the filling? sometimes the macaron absorbs some fluids from whatever filling you use, so that could be the reason

[NimSudsiri]

@lillanilo....Thanks,...I will try to make the filling dryer. :)

[lillanilo]

@NimSudsiri you're welcome :)

[ASEOH]

@NimSudsiri They should not be too chewy from the middle, As I know... I

[GoodAsAlex]

You are in Sweden right?

[lillanilo]

@GoodAsAlex Yes exactly :)

[EsperTinaVI]

Really wish people would stop calling them macaroons. -__- These are macarons, dumbasses.

[pleaseSTFUnow]

@EsperTinaVI I know! It's so annoying!

[EsperTinaVI]

Aww, you're adorable. :3 And you look like Nadia Ali :o

[lillanilo]

@EsperTinaVI thank you! :) oh I'll have to google that name, I don't know who she is lol :) <3

[sebastian56309]

@EsperTinaVI

WOW!!! Your right she has a striking resemblance to her. Both are very attractive young girls. Lillanilo very nice job with macaroons what nationality is the accent from very cute.

[didyoumeansassa]

Röd. <3

[marawy22]

Great macaroons thanks will you please tell the ingredients in cups and how many eggs cos I don't have scale

[RobustFilms1]

I love your videos! keep up the great work!

P.S. I suggest putting the measurements in other units than scale because if your like me I don't own one.

Lots of Love

[toubibfrancais]

What size piping tip did you use? Loved the video!!! Many, many thanks! One piece of advice: often useful to tie a knot in the top of the piping bag: if your a klutz like me, it avoids a lot of macaroon paste everywhere.

[lillanilo]

@toubibfrancais I think its a 1 cm piping tip. Thank you so much! :) Thanks for the advice!

[lildevil872]

you meant piping bags hehe they look awesome :P

[SabrinaSantoso]

For step number 3 you used powdered sugar and sugar.. what type of sugar is the sugar you used?

[lillanilo]

@SabrinaSantoso the sugar I used was just normal plain white sugar

[bubelaJC]

Thank you so much for posting this video! Awesome tutorial :)

[leana616]

y does the macaron dont hav feet

[lillanilo]

@leana616 they did? look at 8:30 and you'll see..

[leana616]

@lillanilo oh yeah but thre small

[lillanilo]

@leana616 well you can make them any size you want, if you want bigger feet, then just turn the heat up and the batter will try to "run away" from your macaron in the owen, and you'll have bigger feet. if you want the smaller feet that don't stick out, turn the heat down a little bit and this is what you get. got it?

[lillanilo]

@sarahinthehizzy omg thank you!! haha finally... that totally makes sense, wonder why I couldn't figure that out myself lol =P

[BAMitsRuzi]

This is an awesome video only because I bought macarons months ago an it was from a online site that sold them an they took over 3 weeks to make an she almost lost my package and it was horrible some of them that she sent me out. But i liked the chocolate ones :)

[NoraMog1]

may i know what is the baking time..thanks. i love this video and i from singapore:) I fail my first try doing it and my macarons stuck on the traying paper and it was so hard and i hv to throw it away. I dunno what wrong with it. So i guess i wanna try what shown on ur video and i hope this time, it turn well. It was so sad my first try didnt turn well.. hope to hear from u..

[lillanilo]

@NoraMog1 check the info box for all the details. I'm sorry to hear you failed your first time, but trust me, I've failed maaany times before I got it right so don't give up! the more you do it, the better you get at it :) good luck!
