A recipe from cooking-ez.com

For 230 g, you will need:

• 2 100 g caster sugar
• 3 30 g egg white
• Total weight: 230 grams

Times:

Preparation
2 min.

Step by step recipe

• 1: In a bowl, mix 100 g ground almonds and 100 g caster sugar with a whisk.
• 2: Add 30 g egg white and mix well with a soft spatula until it makes a fairly thick paste.
  Your "macaronade" is ready for use.
• 3: Typical use: a thin layer on the surface of a cake (here a pistachio cake) before baking.

Remarks

Depending on the quality and age of your almonds, you may need to alter the quantity of egg white to get the right consistency. I suggest you start by putting half the stated quantity in the bowl, then add more as you need.
You can vary this recipe by using ground hazelnuts instead of almonds.
