Ingredients

Instructions

Do not brown or peel almonds. Grind immediately into crumbs.
Add sugar, stir. I added less sugar than in the recipe (it is very sweet).
Add proteins.
Mix well, you can use a mixer or blender, about half a minute.
Put on very low heat (you can use a water bath). While stirring, bring to a temperature of 30-40 degrees (i.e. approximately body temperature). The sugar should dissolve.
Add flour and mix well again. The consistency of the dough is like a pancake.
Turn on the oven (preheat to 190 degrees). Cover the baking sheet with parchment or foil. Grease parchment or foil with oil, lightly sprinkle with flour. Spread the dough with a spoon, or better – from a pastry bag. The cookies spread during baking, so leave enough space between them. The approximate dia of the cake is 5 cm.
We bake almond cookies at a temperature of 190 degrees for 15-17 minutes. Time depends on the characteristics of the oven, watch out for the cookies, my first portion was ready in 7 minutes!

Enjoy your meal!
