Almond Cakes

Juicy, small almond cakes with a lime and mint flavour.

100 g Sliced almonds
75 g Icing sugar
1 Egg white (approximately 2 tbsp)
½ tbsp Finely Grated Zest of lime fruits (unwaxed)
30 Fresh mint Leaves

Instructions

Step 1

  • Get the almonds in a small grinder or a food processor and chop them finely at the fastest speed for approximately 1 minute.

Step 2

  • Add the icing sugar and blend for another approximately 20 seconds. Add egg white gradually, lime zest and 5 mint leaves. Blend the mixture until it begins to stick together.

Step 3

  • Form the dough into small "eggs" with two teaspoons and place them on a baking sheet. Squeeze a mint leaf onto each of the bread loaves and place them in the middle of the oven.

Baking Time

  • 12-14 minutes at 175 °
Enjoy!

Instead of lime and mint you can use ½ cup roasted and chopped hazelnuts. Decorate the cakes with whole hazelnuts and place them in the middle of the oven. Dip in melted dark chocolate.
