Macaron with Organic Açaí Oil Ganache

First prepare the ganache:

  • 88g white chocolate
  • 37g 35% fat cream
  • 40g of Organic Açaí Oil
  • 1/3 cup Cold Pressed Sunflower Oil
  • ½ cup of Liquid Brown Sugar

Method of Preparation:

  1. Melt chocolate in double boiler.
  2. Add the cream and mix until combined.
  3. Add the Organic Açaí Oil and mix. Beat with a hand mixer for approximately 2 minutes to homogenize the ganache well.
  4. Pour into a pot and cover with plastic wrap. Wait for it to crystallize at room temperature.

For the pistachio buttercream:

  • ½ cup of Vegetable Butter

Macaron:

  • 100g of refined sugar
  • 100g of egg whites
  • 105g almond flour
  • 105g icing sugar

Method of Preparation:

  1. Make a Swiss meringue with the egg whites and caster sugar and beat until stiff peaks form.
  2. While the meringue is in the mixer, sift the icing sugar with the almond flour.
  3. Add the dry ingredients to the meringue and mix until it forms a ribbon.
  4. Using a piping bag with a smooth round nozzle, pipe the dough onto a baking tray with a silicone mat, making circles of approximately 3cm. Lightly shake the pan and let it rest for 30 to 40 minutes, until the macarons have a “crust”.
  5. Bake in an oven at 150°C (preheated) for approximately 12 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through the time.

Assembly:

  1. After baking, wait for the macarons to cool and fill with the ganache.
  2. Store in the refrigerator for 24 hours before serving.
