Peanut Butter & Jelly Keto French Macarons
Have you ever had a French Macaron?
I always thought these were the most beautiful cookies and you can buy them in stunning boxes at the Paris airport.
My mission was to make a keto macaroon without almond flour and I finally created a perfect recipe for all of you!
HOW TO MAKE KETO FRENCH MACARONS
To make my peanut butter & jelly macarons, instead of almond meal, I used Equip prime protein. I like to have nut free recipes for my clients.
The secret ingredient in my macaron recipe is Equip Prime Protein!
The protein powder also makes the macarons a super yummy and extra heathy; packed with protein to help build bones, strong muscles, beautiful hair. Do not limit your protein when you are doing the keto diet. Protein is key when it comes to health.
One easy way to boost your protein intakes is to add Equip Prime Protein to delicious recipes like healthy keto cookies!
Equip is so generous, they are offering 15% off when you use code MARIA!

TIPS ON MAKING KETO FRENCH MACARONS
- Use Room Temperature Eggs
- Do not allow any water to touch the whites: make sure your bowl is dry, the spatula is dry and the hand mixer is dry.
- Do not spray the parchment with fat. Place the cookie batter on dry parchment. Spray will cause the cookies to fall.
- Use erythritol instead of allulose. Allulose will work BUT they are very sticky.

Hi Maria. I just wanted to say thank you for the carnivore gravy recipe. I made it this last Thanksgiving. Oh wow was it delicious! I was so happy to skip the flour in my usual recipe and make it much healthier with your recipe. My husband also raved how tasty it was. Looking forward to making more of your recipes in the new year and staying on tract with my health. Wishing you & your beautiful family a blessed New Year!
This warms my heart. Happy New Year!
I have the pb equip protein powder but only the strawberry jay robb. Will that work as well?
Hi Maria, this recipe sounds very delicious. I tried to make it twice and both times I could not get the stiff peaks, even though the eggs and all the equipment were dry and room temperature. The only thing that was different, I used hemp protein powder instead of Equip. Could this be the reason why it didn’t work?
Hemp powder won’t work. You have to follow the recipe exactly 🙂
