Marunchinos (Hebrew: מרוצ’ינוס≠), also known as Sephardi macaroons,[1] is a popular Israeli cookie of Sephardi Jewish origin made with ground blanched almonds or almond flour, egg whites, sugar or more traditionally honey, spices, and oftentimes dried fruit and orange blossom or rose water, that is traditionally made during Passover (Pesach), as it is one of the few desserts which is unleavened and does not contain chametz (wheat and similar grains).[2][3][4][5][6][7][8]
