Pistachio Macarons
Classic Pistachio Macarons filled with Ladurée pistachio cream. Simply the best!
I can’t believe that just 3 weeks ago, I was strolling through Champs-Elysses in Paris with my husband. Snacking on colorful French macarons from famous Ladurée boutique. Witnessing a beautiful sunset from Arc de Triomphe. I’m telling ya, I had lots of pinch-me-moments. I can’t wait to share all the photos (ok, maybe not all of them, just the highlights) with you here, but first I need to process them all.
Why am I telling you about my vacation again? Well, because today’s recipe is totally inspired by my trip to Paris. I’ve been working on pistachio macaron recipe on and off for a few months now. The biggest holdback was the filling. After having pistachio macarons from Ladurée, my heart melted a little bit. And I knew that’s the filling I want. When I came back, I quickly paged through my Ladurée Macarons book (absolutely the most gorgeous book on the planet!) to see if the pistachio cream recipe is included. And lucky for us, it sure was.
[I get a lot of questions about this white serving dish. I bought this particular one at a local thrift store, but I found similar one on amazon.com.]
Over the last couple of years, I’ve made a few macaron flavors that I’m quite proud of. They are nothing special, just simple classic flavors. In the process, I learned quite a lot about art of making French macaron and developed my own basic recipe for my macaron shells, which is a base for this recipe as well.
A few important notes for success:
- It’s crucial to sift the dry ingredients a few times 1. to aerate the mixture, 2. to mix all the ingredients, and 3. to remove any big chunks of almond or pistachio flour.
- Make sure all the utensils for beating egg whites are completely grease-free. Just a touch of oil has power of ruining your meringue. Some advise to wipe the bowl and whisk with vinegar, but I don’t really bother with that. Just washing and drying with a clean towel does the trick for me.
- Be careful not to include even the smallest drop of egg yolk in the egg whites. Egg yolk=oil. See the above note.
- Don’t beat the egg whites on high speed right away. Instead start on medium low speed then slowly increase the speed for the sturdy meringue.
- Gently fold the batter after adding the dry ingredients. If this is your first time making the macarons, it helps if you count each fold. It usually takes about 50-60 folds to get to proper consistency. I no longer count, but it helped a lot when I was just learning.
- Making macarons is all about technique, and it’s important to learn the folding technique right from the start. At the beginning the batter is quite thick, but it’ll get thinner as you fold. Be careful not to over-mix, or the batter will get too runny and the cookies will spread too much. Overmixing also results in hollow macarons. And don’t be tempted to undermix the batter to avoid overmixing, because then the macarons won’t have smooth top and won’t have pretty ruffled bottom. I made this full tutorial video. At 2:25 on the video, I showed you how to know when the batter is just right.
- Make sure the macaron shells are dried sufficiently before baking. It can take from 10min up to couple hours, depending on the humidity. For me, it usually takes 15-20 minutes. If you don’t dry the shells prior to baking, your macarons won’t have those pretty feet.
Now that important non-negotiables are covered, I want to share a few useful tips:
- Egg whites at room temperature are usually whipped better and faster.
- Make your own pistachio flour by grinding shelled pistachio in a coffee grinder.
- Use gel food coloring, instead of liquid ones. I use this Wilton Leaf Green.
- Try to pipe uniform circles for even baking. Mine doesn’t always turn out perfect, but I do my best. If you want to be precise, you can print out little circles and place it under the parchment paper for guidance.
Now, let’s talk about the pistachio cream. This recipe is adapted from Laduree Macarons book, page 40. I had to adjust the ingredients amount to make just enough for my basic macaron shells recipe. This pistachio cream is rich, creamy and delicious.
It might seem like a complicated process, because of the boiling syrup and such. It’s not difficult at all though. Equipped with the right tools, it’ll will take just minutes. A candy thermometer is a must, and standing mixer helps too. Be very careful when you pour hot syrup into the beating egg yolks. Slowly and gradually is your safe speed to work. You don’t want to splatter hot syrup all over, do you?
The recipe calls for pistachio paste, but I had none on hand. I did have a bag of pistachio though. It turns out it’s unbelievably easy to make a homemade pistachio paste. Sure, you can buy a ready-to-use version online, or at the store. If you want to make your own, I shared the detailed directions here.
I hope I inspired you for a weekend project with these dainty little sweets.
Have a fantastic weekend and thank you for stopping by!
Pistachio Macarons
Follow my easy step-by-step photo tutorial to these Classic Pistachio Macarons filled with Ladurée pistachio cream. Simply the best!
Yield: About 25 filled macarons
Cook Time:20 min
Total Time:2 hours (including resting and cooling time)
Ingredients:
For Macaron Shells:
- 2/3 cup (60gr) ground almond flour
- 1/3 cup (40gr) ground pistachio flour*
- ¾ cup (100gr) powdered sugar
- 2 large egg whites (about 70gr)
- ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
- ¼ cup (50gr) sugar
- 1/8 teaspoon green gel food coloring
For Filling:
- 1/3 cup (65gr) sugar
- 2 tablespoons (30ml) water
- 2 egg yolks
- 2oz (55gr) unsalted butter, softened
- 3 teaspoons (20gr) pure pistachio paste (I used my homemade version)
Helpful Equipment:
• Pastry bag with Wilton Extra Large Round Tip #1
Directions:
- In medium bowl, sift together almond flour, pistachio flour and powdered sugar twice. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl with whisk attachment, beat the egg whites on medium speed until foamy. Add cream of tartar and continue to beat. Slowly add sugar one tablespoon at a time. Increase the speed to medium high and beat until hard peaks. Add the food coloring (I used Wilton Leaf Green). Beat on medium speed for one more minute.
- Sift the dry ingredients over the whipped egg whites. Gently fold the mixture running the spatula clockwise from the bottom, up around the sides and cut the batter in half. The batter will look very thick at first, but it will get thinner as you fold. Be careful not to over mix it though. Every so often test the batter to see if it reached the right consistency. To test the batter, drop a small amount of the batter and count to ten. If the edges of the ribbon are dissolved within ten seconds, then the batter is ready. I repeat, do NOT mix again. If you still see edges, fold the batter couple more times and test again. I posted a few pictures above to show you how just a few folding changes the consistency of the batter. This step is so crucial, so please make sure to test often to ensure not to over mix the batter.
- Transfer the batter into a pastry bag with a round tip. (I use this Wilton A1 large plain round tip.)
- Pipe out 1.5-inch rounds about an inch apart on two baking sheets lined with parchment paper. You should get about roughly 54 shells.
- Tap the baking sheets firmly on the counter a few times to get rid of any air bubbles. If you don’t release the air bubbles, they will expand during baking and crack the beautiful macarons shells.
- Let the macarons rest and dry for 15-30 minutes. On a humid day, it might take an hour or so. To see if it’s ready to be baked, lightly touch it. If the batter doesn’t stick to your finger, then it’s ready. Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C).
- Bake the macarons for 18-20 minutes. To check the doneness, remove one macaron. If the bottom does not stick, they are done.
- Transfer to wire rack to cool for 15 minutes, and then remove from the baking sheets.
- While macarons are drying, prepare the pistachio cream. In a small saucepan, combine water and sugar and heat it over medium heat. Stir the mixture until the sugar is completely dissolved. Then bring it to a boil and cook until the syrup reaches 250°F (120°C).
- In a mixing bowl with whisk attachment, beat the egg yolks for 2 minutes. While the mixer is running on low, slowly pour the hot syrup into the egg yolks. Increase the speed to medium high, and beat the mixture until it cools down to 104°F (40°C). The mixture will become smooth and white.
- Add the butter a tablespoon at a time. Then add the pistachio paste and food coloring, if desired. Continue to beat the cream until nice and smooth.
- Transfer the pistachio cream into a pastry bag and fill the macarons. It’s best to serve macarons the next day.
- Store the filled macarons in airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. You can also freeze the filled macarons in airtight container for up to 5 months.

Hi Shinee,
How does this pistachio filling differ than your recipe for pistachio buttercream? The ingredients are different, so just wondering about the taste.
Hi, Ann. So the main difference between the two is method of making the filling. One is simple buttercream, and this one is a little bit more than just buttercream. I love this one better because it’s creamier and more luxurious.
Hi, I’m having trouble with the filling I tried 3 times and failed. I just cannot get the egg yokes to fluff up. The flavor is amazing and I really want to make it work.
Hi, Judith. Thank you for your comment. Are you using candy thermometer when you make the sugar syrup? It’s very important to bring the syrup to the specified temperature.
Thanks for your reply! I can only get it to about 220 -230 then the sugar syrup starts to turn brown. How long do you have to whip it for? Maybe I need to “calibrate” my thermometer to get an accurate reading.
Yeah, definitely calibrate your thermometer and try again. The syrup should reach 250°F (120°C), but shouldn’t turn brown. The temperature is very important. The whipping time may vary depending what kind of mixer you’re using. Hope your next batch turns out great.
These macarons were absolutley delicious!!! Made the pistachio paste from your recipe too! So easy and just full of flavour!! Recipe was easy to follow! Macarons turned out perfect!! Thank you!! 🙂
Yay, so happy you loved these macarons, Ness. These are my favorite! Thank you for your feedback!
If I lift a shell off baking sheet the shell lifts up but the inside stays stuck to parchment. Help!
Hi, Katherine. It sounds like your macarons are a bit under-baked. Try baking 1-2 minutes longer, and hope that helps. Let me know.
I think I first checked them at 18 minutes. Then 20. I ended up baking them for 24 minutes. After they completely cooled I carefully pealed the parchment paper from the back of each shell and thankfully they held together. I used an oven thermometer and temp was 324. In the end they looked great and had that wonderful macaron texture that when you bite into it you just say Aaaahhhhhh. Such a treat for the senses.
Can’t wait to make more!
i made a mistake in my previous comment. I did bake the shells at 300. I was remembering when I was drying the pistachios. Those I did at 325 and my oven thermometer measured 324. So I think my oven is fairly accurate. But I do notice that in general I have to bake things longer in my oven. Maybe it doesn’t heat evenly.
Awesome that you were able to find that perfect timing to bake your macs. Yeah, every oven works differently. As long as your macarons are not browning on top, you should be good. 🙂 Thank you for your feedback, Kathy!
This was my first go at making macarons and they came out alright for my first try but I’m very confused because you said you get 25 and I only got 7 so I’m confused as to what I did wrong. I followed the directions and used all the right measurements. Do you have any idea why this happened?
Hey, Kendra. So glad you tried these macarons. How big of macarons did you get? Mine are 1.5-inch small macarons.
I got 9. Lol! My shells are much too big. I didn’t know they would spread out so much. I have to work on my piping technique!
As you make more macarons, you’ll get better at piping small shells. Even now, I sometimes end up with larger and fewer macarons, which is fine by me. 🙂
What pistachios should I use for my pistachio flour and paste? I wasn’t to use the bag that already has them shelled but am worried they’ll be too salty since they are “roasted and salted.” Thanks!
Hi, Rochelle. I’ve used roasted and salted pistachios, and it was just fine.
Hello!
I am making the pistachio flour using a ninja blender. I have no problem making the paste for the filling, however I am stuck on the pistachio flour for the macaron, as just blending the pistachios gives me a thick almost past like mixture. I have tried sifting it but it won’t go thru the holes. any advice?
Joey, the key is to pulse the pistachios in the blender. If you just process it, it’ll make a paste, as you had described. With very light touches, pulse in quick bursts and check frequently. I did mine in a coffee grinder though, in short pulses. Hope this helps.
I looked online and baked my pistachios at 325 for 5 minutes. It dries them out so you will get a flour, not moist paste, which happened to me too.
Katherine, that’s a great tip! Thank you for sharing!
Hi! I love these macarons! They taste wonderful. I’ve made them twice now and I follow the recipe to the t! But both times, my filling has been really runny. Could you tell me why and what I can do to fix it? TIA! 🙂
Hi, Mej. So glad you’re loving the macarons! As for the filling, what is the consistency of the mixture after step 11? If it’s stiff to hold its shape, but becomes runny after you add butter, make sure to cool egg yolk mixture down to 104°F before adding the butter. Otherwise it melts your butter, making it runny. Hope this helps.
You need to double the butter or it won’t work
Hi, Rebecca. Thanks for your input. For me, it works just fine as written.
I made them and they’re wonderful. Only issue is I also have the problem with a little browning on top and bottom. Had the oven to 300 degrees as well. Added a little bit of almond extract paste too with the cream and it made it so yummy. Raw cane sugar can be finicky too but it’s all I use. Left some clumps in the syrup.
Thank you though so much for the recipe. I have been obsessed with pistachio and headed to France next month so it’s been so much fun to be baking French items. I’m gluten free as well so these are a delightful treat!
God Bless!
Hi, Megan! Thank you for your feedback! I’m so happy you loved the recipe. I love your almond extract addition, I’ll give it a try too. As for browning issue, try baking them at 275°F next time, every oven works differently, and yours might run a bit on hotter side. By the way, do you have an oven thermometer, it’s super helpful to check your oven temp just to be sure. I use this one (affiliate link).
And have fun in France. It’s a magical country!
can i use this filling as a tart filling? do you think it will work?
Hi, Farah. It’s similar to buttercream, but better. So if your tart pairs with that kind filling, I don’t see why you couldn’t.
These look delish and I believe will compliment the pistachio cake I am going to make as well. My mother was a professional cake maker, as a child there would be beautiful wedding cakes, In my house cake did not come from Betty Crocker. I love to bake for my 3 small children. I’ve never felt as home as I do in a kitchen, as cliche as it sounds. Baking has always been theurapituc and a joy for me. Thank you so much for the lovely recipe.
Aww, Rachel, thanks for sharing your beautiful memory. I too grew up eating homemade cakes, my mom is quite a home baker. 🙂 So glad you stopped by and I hope these macarons would compliment your pistachio cake, which sounds amazing! I love pistachio desserts.
I can’t imagine I could ever make something so perfect! Your Macaroons are amazing!! Wanted to pop by and thank you for sharing & let you know I’ll be featuring your cookies tomorrow on #FoodieFriDIY!
Thank you so much, Debra, for sharing, featuring my recipe and stopping by! 🙂
My mom and I were talking about making these just yesterday! I tried them once before but they did not look right at all lol, hopefully this recipe will turn out better! Thanks for sharing all the great tips 😉
Dropping by from the DIY Sunday Showcase
Thank you, Shehla! Hope you give it a try. 😉
I’m extremely intimidated to try and make these. I tried one for the first and only time at Disneyland this summer! I love how they are yummy but also so pretty! I’m going to pin this when i get the courage to try it.
Lara, do try making these. So much cheaper than buying. And if they turn out as pretty as store-bought ones, you’ll be happy dancing in your kitchen. 🙂 Thanks for stopping by.
Shinee! Seriously, please move to Mississippi where I live and open up a macaron shop. I would be your best customer! lol! But really, these look so pretty. And I love how detailed you are with your instructional photos. I keep saying I’m going to make macarons; you will be my inspiration to finally make that leap, I just know it! Thanks so much for sharing this beautiful dessert art with all of us 🙂
Aww, thanks so much, Whitney! Definitely give this a try! They are so worth it.
Your macarons look perfect! So yummy ^^ I love macarons but it’s a pitty they’re so small xD
Haha agreed! When you make your own, you can make as big as you want it though! 🙂 Thanks for stopping by, Sarah!
These look phenom, and the colour makes them perfect for St. Patrick’s Day too! I’m so envious of how gorgeous these macrons turned out – I have definitely not mastered that skill at all!
These look beautiful! I’ve never tried making macaroons before (but I love buying them!). I love your tips and instructions, now I need to try them! Pinned.
You make it look easy. I think I may just give these a try, my daughter loves pistachios and macarons, so she’ll be in macaron heaven.
Do try, Celeste. Your daughter will be so happy. Thanks for stopping by!
We’ve never attempted macaroons and it’s about time we give it a go! Thanks for the inspiration!
Yay, let me know how they turn out. Thanks for visiting, Trina and Tina!
Hi! Just wondering if I can do without the cream of tartar because I don’t think I have any. Also, is it just regular sugar? I’ve seen recipes that use castor or powdered sugar. Thanks!!
Yes, you can omit cream of tartar. It just helps to stabilize egg whites, but it’s not required. Actually, my recipe calls for both regular sugar and powdered sugar. Powdered sugar is sifted with almond flour, and regular sugar goes into egg whites. Hope this helps! Happy baking, Kerry!
Hi, I had trouble making the filling… as soon as i poured the hot syrup into the whipped egg yolks, huge chunks of the syrup hardened in the mixture and wouldn’t mix with the yolks… could it be I didn’t pour the syrup slowly enough? Not sure where I went wrong because I did use a candy thermometer…
Hmm, that’s weird. Was the mixer running while you poured the hot syrup? And how fast did you pour it?
Hi Lily,
Can you grind up pre-packaged roasted and salted pistachios to make the pistachio flour and paste? Or will that make the macaron taste salty…
Thanks!
Yeah, that’d be fine, Christina. That’s what I actually used to make my pistachio flour.
Hi,
Do you make your own pistachio paste? Can i use ground pistachio instead of paste? Thanks.
Hi Lily! Yes, I make my own pistachio paste. Here is the instruction how I do it. I don’t know how it’ll work if you use ground pistachio though. Hope this helps.
I tried the macaron recipe today and it turned out perfect! I also had trouble with light browning on top but I will try the tray above it next time. I made pale coloured green so that probably accentuated the light brown colouring. It is the fourth macaron recipe I have tried and it is by far the most successful in terms of flavour and texture! Thanks so much for your guidance & recipe. xxx
Milena, I’m so glad to hear you loved my recipe! Yeah, next time try to put a tray above to minimize the browning. Thank you for leaving your feedback!!
Your ratios for the pistachio cream are way off. That’s not a syrup, that’s slightly sugared water. I’m a baker who makes Italian meringue buttercream icing every day, which is pretty much this same idea just with egg whites instead of yolks. Against my better judgement I followed the directions, but obviously only ended up with a fluffy… mess. Definitely not cream at all. I’d revise your recipe.
Oh my god, Rozz, I just checked the recipe and I’ve no idea why I put that much water there! You’re so right, I put down way too much water. It should have been only 2 tablespoons. I feel so horrible, and I’m so sorry about the mistake. And thank you for leaving a feedback and letting me know. I corrected the recipe now.
hello, i was looking at this recipe and the one for buttercream and the one for homemade pistachio paste doesn’t show the recipe. i totally want to make all three. Thanks!
Rosalva, I added the pistachio buttercream recipe back in the post (for some reason, it got disappeared). As for pistachio paste, there is no recipe box, as I had described the process in the post itself. Hope this helps. Have fun baking these pistachio macarons.
Thank you for this post. I am going to adapt my base macaron recipe for pistachio. Where did you find/buy the adorable macaron serving platter?
You’ll love the pistachio macarons. It’s one of my faves. I got that dish from a thrift store. Isn’t it perfect for macarons?
Hey! I followed your recipe today, shells came out alright, but the cream! I tried it twice… both times, the cream turned into a liquid after I added the butter (tablespoon by tablespoon). Then there was no way to thicken it after it turned into a liquid. No idea what I did wrong! My only thought it that the sugar and water mixture never could reach 120 celcius, max temp it would go was 101… Not sure what was happening there and why after boiling for minutes the temperature wouldnt go up! Guess I’ll have to try again next time…
Hi, Jessie. Sorry you had trouble making the cream. I wonder if you added the butter while the egg mixture was too hot. If that’s the case, it’ll definitely melt the butter. If the syrup doesn’t reach 120°C, then I would suggest increasing the heat to high and let it boil longer. Hope next time, it will turn out fine.
Your macarons look so good! I also love the fact that your recipe doesn’t use as much sugar as other macaron recipes I’ve tried. The only thing is that I’ve tried your recipe twice but for some reason, each time, they don’t come out like macarons but like soft cookies. When I fold the flour/sugar mixture with the egg whites it doesn’t come out smooth but the edges do disappear after 10 seconds and I’m only able to make 16-17 shells in total. I’m so confused, I follow your recipe step by step the only difference is that I use a hand mixer. Do you think that could be the reason why? I whip my egg whites to stiff peaks but it doesn’t look like there’s that much egg whites when I compare it with your picture. What could I be doing wrong? Please help.
Hi, Chasity! Thank you for trying my recipe. And I’m sorry you didn’t get the perfect result.
1. Soft cookie-like texture, could it be your oven is not hot enough? I’d recommend to check the oven temp with a oven thermometer just to make sure it’s at 325°F.
2. When you say the batter doesn’t come out smooth, do you mean it’s kind of grainy from almond flour? What type of almond flour are you using? And are you thoroughly sifting the dry ingredients 3 times?
3. Only 16-17 shells? That’s weird. I usually get about 50+ shells (about 1.5 inch rounds). Maybe you’re piping too big circles?
4. The hand mixer shouldn’t be an issue, as I also used hand mixer on occasion. Do you, by chance, weigh the egg whites? Maybe you’re not using enough egg whites? That might be a pretty big thing. I usually use about 80gr egg whites, which is usually from 2 large eggs. Hope we can find a solution for your issue. 🙂
Thanks for reaching out!
Hi Shinee!
I tried it a third time and it came out much better. This time I weighed out my egg whites and I needed 2.5 eggs. It browned a little on the top but overall came out really good. Now I just have to figure out the right baking time so they won’t brown on the top. Thank you for your help and great recipe! I’m so glad my macarons came out good.
Yay!! So glad to hear you saw an improvement! Doesn’t it feel awesome to get the perfect macarons out of the oven?? 🙂 Here is a little trick you can try to prevent the macarons from browning too much: Place the second oven rack on the very top slot, then place an empty cookie sheet on it. This should block the heat from the top, preventing the browning issue. Hope this helps. Thank you, Chasity!
These look gorgeous! i love pistachio macarons and would love to attempt making my own! PS; What pistachio flour did you use?
Hi, Michelle. Thank you! I ground the pistachios myself in the coffee grinder.

I had beginner’s luck with these and then had one batch crack! Aaack! I need to try them with the boiling syrup. I hear that they are more stable. Beautiful!
Yeah, macarons are quite finicky. Hope you give them another try. Thanks, Karen. 🙂
I think these are out of my league, but maybe someday!
That’s exactly what I thought couple years ago, Pam. You can do it! 🙂
Shinee, I can’t wait to try these! They are absolutely beautiful!
Thank you, Mandi! You’ll love them.
These are totally gorgeous! We were in Paris a few years ago (4?? WAY too long ago!), and I think the macarons were my favorite!
Yep, best macarons ever!Thank you, Ashley.
