Hi! I tried your recipe and it came out really well. However my oven is small so some batter was remaining and I didn't know if I could leave the batter till the first batch finishes baking so I ended up dumping it. There was not much, I would have gotten 5 macroons at the most. I want to know if it is okay to let the batter sit for the time one batch bakes. If so how long can the batter sit?

I use Borosil OTG Oven. Can you please let me know at what temperature, mode (both the heaters / only upper one / only lower one, with or without circulating fan), and the duration of baking. Tried them many times but I get the macaroons a bit flatter and 'chewy' when done. Please help me. Thanks in advance.
