HOW TO MAKE ALMOND FINANCIERS
-
STEP 1In a large mixing bowl, combine the sifted flour with the powdered sugar and the almond flour. Then, add the egg whites and finally the melted butter. Gently mix and put the mixture in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
-
STEP 2
Preheat the oven to 180°C (355°F). Butter and flour individual molds of approximately 4cm height and 2.5cm width. Fill each mold with the mixture from step 1, up to two thirds of the height of the molds. Place the filled molds on a baking tray and bake for 12 minutes on the middle rack of the oven.

STEP 3
Remove from the oven and let the cakes cool down for several minutes before removing from the mold. Using a toothpick delicately, create a small hole at the top of each cake. Use a piping bag to fill each hole with 4g of Nutella®. Then also decorate the top of each cake with 1g of Nutella®. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve.
