flour cookies just have different chemistry than macaron. Flour has gluten, which gets in the way, but way less fat, which is important for texture. If you want something nut free, sunflower seed flour is considered the best approximation.

Add about a tablespoon of any fat to your AP. Rub that in, until you get a texture akin to ground almond flour. That should help.
