What could be causing them to come out lopsided like this? I saw that over resting them can do it but these were only resting for 15 minutes, I put them in as soon as the tops were dry

    Recipe- French method 100g almond flour, 75g powdered sugar, 70g egg whites, 70g caster sugar, 1/4tsp cream of tartar. Baked at 300 for 18 minutes

    Also oven has been checked for proper temps and hot spots

    Do you pipe directly vertically? I sometimes have lopsided shells when I don’t pipe absolutely vertically! Another issue could be if you’re using the convection setting of the oven – if you are, I’d suggest trying it on regular oven setting. If not, then I think your piping technique is off 🙂

    Maybe air bubbles 🤔 I see a couple small ones on a few of the shells, and since they’re tilted in different directions, I don’t think it was an uneven oven. Maybe try tapping a little bit more aggressively or macaronaging a little further to knock out a bit more air.

    Uneven air flow while drying or baking can cause this
