Default Tea cookies without butter or margarine ?

Macaroons are usually made with coconut which is high in saturated fat.
These are made with almonds whose fat is considered "healthy".

Sephardic Almond Macaroon Recipe

(Macaroons that are sephardic use a lemon zest flavoring instead of the
traditional almond extract. )

3 large egg whites
Zest of 1 large lemon
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups blanched finely ground almonds

Beat the egg whites until they form soft peaks. Mix in zest, and then
sugar. Fold in almonds.

Cover a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper or a silpat,
then oil it. Scoop 2 tsp. batter per cookie onto the sheet. Bake for 30
minutes at 275F. Let cool.
