Ingredients

Yield: About 40 pieces

• 125g powdered sugar
• 15g high gluten flour
• 25g low gluten flour
• 50g butter, melted
• 3 egg whites
• 150g almond slices

Directions

2. In a separate small bowl, separate the egg white from the folk.
3. Add egg whites and melted butter to the flour/sugar mix.
4. Stir in almond slices gently into the batter with a rubber spatula.
5. On a large rectangular baking sheet, lined with either a non-stick silicone mat or greased foil (foil greased with butter, oil or Pam)
6. Spread the batter onto the baking sheet – make sure it is a thin layer and that the almond slices don’t all stack on top of each other.
