Step 1

1. Line your baking tray with silpat or parchment paper. Prepare your piping bag fitted with a round nozzle. Wipe everything down with vinegar. 2. In a food processor, grind almond flour, icing sugar into fine powder. 3. Bring few cups of water to boil in a small pot. The boiling pot should be smaller than the mixing bowl. 4. In the mixing bowl, add the aquafaba and granulated sugar and place the mixing bowl on top of the boiling water pot. Make sure the bowl doesn't come in contact with the boiling water. 5. Using a whisk, mix the aquafaba till the sugar in it gets dissolved. While whisking, heat mixture up to 50ºC. 6. Return the bowl to the stand mixer and add cream of tartar and xanthan gum. Using a whisk attachment, whisk at highest speed until stiff(ish) peaks. 7. Add the almond flour and icing sugar mixture in to the meringue. Add the desired color to the batter and fold till the color is mixed. Do not over fold at this stage. 8. Macaronage by carefully spreading the batter around the bowl, then gathering it back the the center to fold three times. Repeat until molten lava texture/ figure 8 stage. 9. Preheat oven to 240ºF. 10. Pipe the macaron shells on the prepared tray. 11. Tap the tray few times to release any air bubbles trapped inside. 12. Rest the shells for about 30 to 45 minutes till the skin is dry. 13. Once the skin is dry, bake in the preheated oven for about 25 mins till they are baked completely, turning the tray 3 times every 4 minutes. 14. Once baked, cool them and pipe them with desired filling.
