Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Sift together almond flour and icing sugar in a bowl; set aside.
- In a clean mixing bowl, whip egg whites until foamy. Gradually add granulated sugar, beating until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the sifted dry ingredients into the whipped egg whites using a spatula until just combined.
- Pipe small circles onto prepared baking sheets, leaving space between each. Tap sheets gently to release air bubbles.
- Allow macarons to rest at room temperature for about 30 minutes until they form a skin.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes or until shells lift easily from parchment paper. Let cool completely.
- Fill with strawberry buttercream made by mixing pureed strawberries with softened butter and heavy cream.

Notes
For a unique twist, consider swapping strawberries for other berries or adding flavored extracts to the macaron shells.
