Tips
A good tip for using up a spare egg white or two!
Ingredients
- 100 g Ground almonds
- 50 g Caster sugar (normal or golden)
- 1 tsp Orange zest (½ orange or whole orange if you want to increase orange flavour)
- 1 Egg white
- 10 - 15 g Flaked almonds
Method
- Preheat oven to 180 C.
- Beat the egg whites with a fork for about 30 seconds, to make them frothy - they don’t need to be whisked, like meringues.
- Mix together the sugar, ground almonds and orange zest, then add the egg white and bring together into a dough. It will look and feel like soft marzipan.
- Roll the dough into a sausage shape and cut into 12 pieces. Roll each piece into a ball and flatten slightly, then place on a baking tray lined with baking parchment. Press a few flaked almonds into each one.
- Bake in the oven for 10 minutes until just beginning to turn golden. Leave to cool on the baking tray.
