Ingredients:
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 3 egg whites
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 apple, peeled and diced
- 1/4 cup sliced almonds
- 1/4 cup honey
Serves: 6
Cooking Tips:
- Use a non-stick muffin tin to prevent the financiers from sticking.
- Be sure to fold the egg whites into the batter gently to avoid deflating them.
- Toast the sliced almonds in a dry skillet over medium heat for a few minutes until golden brown.
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a muffin tin with cooking spray.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, all-purpose flour, sugar, and salt.
3. Add the melted butter, egg whites, vanilla extract, and almond extract to the bowl and stir until well combined.
4. Fold in the diced apple and sliced almonds.
5. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
6. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the financiers are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
7. Remove the financiers from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
8. Drizzle the honey over the top of the financiers before serving.
