Amiens macaroons
Step by step recipe:
- 5 min.
Preheat the oven to 390°F (200°C).
Put 250 g ground almonds, 240 g icing sugar and 10 g Vanilla sugar into a mixing bowl. Mix well with a whisk. - 3 min.
Add 110 g egg white and 35 g Stewed apple (compote)... - 3 min.
...and mix thoroughly. - 10 min.
Place small heaps of the mixture on a non-stick baking sheet (this is important as the macaroons tend to stick).
Do not place the heaps too close together as the mixture will spread a little during cooking. - 3 min.
If possible, spray the tops with a little water as this helps them to turn a nice golden brown as they cook. - 25 min.
Bake for about 25 minutes, watching for colouration.: the macaroons should stay fairly pale, but with a golden brown edge.
Unstick the macaroons from the baking sheet while still hot, as this is easier, and leave to cool on a wire rack.
