ALMOND CAKES PREPARATION

  • Place butter in a small sauce pan and heat on medium until melted. Then, continue to heat until there are no more bubbles coming up and the whistling has reduced (about 5min). Pass your brown butter through the sift. Set aside.
  • In a mixing bowl, whisk the almond flour, all-purpose flour and powdered sugar together. Add the egg whites, the vanilla bean paste, sea salt, the cooled brown butter, and whisk gently until smooth. 
  • Scoop your batter into the Flexipan®. Add 3 quarters of figs per well.

BAKE!

  • Bake for 20 minutes at 350F/180C. (Every oven heats differently, monitor your cakes from 18min). It is ready when the toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Once your Summer Figs Almond Cakes are out of the oven, let them cool down for about 10min. Then, Unmold, Serve and Enjoy! Bon Appétit!
