Apple Caramel Macarons

Apple Caramel Macarons Macarons shaped like apples filled with Salted Caramel Buttercream and Apple Pie Filling. Something very important I forgot to say on the video!! Make sure to print and pipe both the regular apple template, and the mirrored apple template, so the apple sandwiches will match later. If you pipe apples only with the leaves on the right for example, you won't be able to form the sandwiches later, as the shells need to mirror each other. On my blog you can find both templates, the regular and the mirrored. https://www.piesandtacos.com/caramel-apple-macarons/ Recipe: Macaron Shells 100 grams egg whites 100 grams granulated sugar 105 grams almond flour 105 grams powdered sugar Food coloring I used red, green, and brown Apple Pie Filling 1 cup apples chopped small from about 2 small apples 1 tbsp lemon juice 1/4 cup brown sugar 1/2 tsp cinnamon powder 1/4 tsp freshly grated nutmeg 1/2 tsp cornstarch 2 tsp water Salted Caramel Sauce 1/4 cup sugar (50 grams) 1 1/2 tbsp unsalted butter (21.26 grams) 2 tbsp heavy cream (30 grams) 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt or more to taste Salted Caramel Buttercream 6 tbsp unsalted butter room temperature (85 grams) 1/4 cup salted caramel sauce store bought or homemade included here 1 1/2 – 2 cups powdered sugar (187 grams – 250 grams) For the full recipe visit: https://www.piesandtacos.com/caramel-apple-macarons/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/piesandtacos Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/piesandtacos Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/piesandtacos Important notes: Scale: Please use a scale when measuring the ingredients for accuracy. Macaron amount: it will vary greatly depending on how big you pipe the shells, and on how runny or thick the batter is. Baking time/temperature: Baking time and temperature will vary according to your own oven. I recommend experimenting with your oven to find out the best time, temperature, position of the baking tray. Oven thermometer: Make sure to have an oven thermometer to bake macarons. It’s one of the most important things about making macarons. Home ovens aren’t accurate at all at telling the temperature, and even a slight 5 degree difference can make or break your whole batch. Tray rotation: Lots of bakers don’t have to rotate the trays 180 degrees in the oven every 5 minutes, but I do have to with my oven, or I will get lopsided macarons. Please adjust this according to your oven.
