Mandelmakronen (Almond Meringues)
These German almond meringue cookies are dairy free and gluten free and are baked during Advent in preparation for Christmas. They are delicious, quick, and easy to make with only four ingredients. Try one to make sure it is baked all the way through, as it can be hard to tell. In Germany, they are baked on backoblaten, little round wafers (there are gluten-free ones), but you can bake them directly on parchment paper as well. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
