Method
- Beat almonds or coconut flakes in a blender along with the icing sugar on low speed, until extra fine. Then, pass through a sieve into a bowl.
- In a separate bowl add the aquafaba with a pinch of salt. Beat with a hand mixer and slowly add the sugar. When soft peaks begin to form, add the blue food colouring, or any other colour that you’d prefer, whilst folding with the spatula.
- Add the fine along and coconut mix to the aquafaba mix and blend, until mixture becomes silky and shiny.
- Place mixture in a piping bag and pipe out small circles on a lined baking tray.
- Preheat the oven to 120°C and bake for 20-25 minutes. Leave them to cool down completely before carefully lifting off the baking paper.
- For the filling blend Violife Creamy Original with the rest of the choco filling ingredients until smooth.
- Place in a piping bag and fill half of the macarons, placing the other half on top of the filled ones like a sandwich.
- Serve and enjoy!
