Ingredients
  

Macaroons
  • 2 cups shredded coconut unsweetened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large egg whites room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest fresh
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
Berry Drizzle
  • 1 cup mixed berries fresh or frozen
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice fresh

Method
 

Prepare the Macaroons
  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine shredded coconut, sugar, egg whites, vanilla extract, lemon zest, and salt. Mix until well combined.
  3. Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop mounds of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  4. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
Prepare the Berry Drizzle
  1. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine mixed berries, honey, and lemon juice. Cook until the berries break down and the mixture thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Remove from heat and let cool slightly before straining to remove seeds, if desired.
Serve
  1. Drizzle the berry sauce over the cooled macaroons before serving.
