Very important! On minute 9:15 I am explaining possible reasons for your macarons to not be working out. Please pay attention to the tips.

1- Make sure the meringue is at stiff peaks!
2- Don't over mix the batter during the macaronage. The macaronage for vegan macarons takes way less time and folding than the macaronage for regular macarons. Fold just until the batter becomes runny, and then stop!
3- Make sure you have an oven thermometer. I can't stress this enough. Also figure out what temperature works out best for your own oven, it can vary greatly from oven to oven, even if using the same exact recipe and method!
