I've been baking macarons for a few years – lately they have been all going lopsided. I figure its my oven and the fact that my pans are years old at this point. I bought new ones to try out – and they worked relatively well.
I usually bake my macarons at 285° for 21 minutes- and usually they are great. Today, I get a modge podge of macs. A couple perfects, few lopsided, few spread feet, and then some that are just completely underbaked. 😅 like what the heck, turtleneck. I currently have a tray baking and am afraid these ones are turning out the same. Uuuuggghhhhh.
What did you do this weekend? BAKED THE WORLDS MOST FRUSTRATING COOKIE EVER.

Sounds like maybe your oven isn’t heating evenly?
We had an issue similar and chose to rotate the pan around halfway through! It helped a lot with uneven heating issues, and we tend to do 305 degrees for 14-15 minutes, so 7 mins in we rotate.
Maybe keep your cook method because the lower temp is better for preventing discoloration, but rotate halfway through the process? About 10-11 minutes in! Best of luck ❤️
Your feet look great overall though!!!! Don’t be too sad because you sure know how to macaronage ❤️❤️❤️ even if they aren’t perfect this batch
