Keto macaroon is a great quick dessert. By the way, don’t confuse it with French macaron! Alena Brukau, a nutrition coach, will tell you about the difference.

Keto macaron or keto macaroon? Till now, were you sure that they the names of the same dessert? Just some people pronounce it right, and the others wrong? No! One letter means a big difference.

Both desserts have Italian roots, thanks to Catherine de Medici and the Renaissance. One became popular in stiff France, the other has spread around the world, and now it is considered to be American.

Macarons in all their glory

Macaron is made of two crispy-outside and soft-inside almond biscuits, connected with cream or jam. Cooking it right is a whole science.

Macaroon is a thick, moist cookie made of coconut flakes and very easy to cook. Let’s make a keto version of macaroons, without sugar. Dipped in chocolate they turn into a great version of “Bounty” bar.
