Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 100 grams Almond flour
- 150 grams Powdered sugar
- 50 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 4 large Egg whites
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 100 ml Neutral-flavored oil (like canola or grape seed)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Lightly grease a financier mold or a muffin tin with oil.
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the almond flour, powdered sugar, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In another bowl, whisk the egg whites until frothy, but not stiff.
Add the vanilla extract and gradually whisk in the neutral-flavored oil until well combined.
Gently fold the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared molds, filling each about three-quarters full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the financiers are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the financiers to cool in the molds for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. These financiers are delicious on their own or paired with jam or a hint of dairy-free whipped cream.
