Spread the love

Ingredients for 1 servings:

  • 200 g almonds, ground, with skin
  • 200 g sugar
  • 4 drops of bitter almond flavor
  • 1 tbsp liquid honey
  • 2 egg whites
  • 50 g raspberry jam, without seeds
  • some powdered sugar

Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Rest time approx. 30 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 15 minutes; Total time approx. 1 hour 5 minutes

Using a hand mixer fitted with a dough hook, mix the sugar, honey, almonds, flavoring, and egg whites until smooth. Cover the dough and chill for about 30 minutes. Shape the mixture into cherry-sized balls, roll them in powdered sugar, and place them on a baking sheet, leaving plenty of space between them. Using a round wooden spoon handle, make small indentations in the amaretti biscuits. Fill a freezer bag or piping bag with the raspberry jam and pipe into the indentations. Bake for 15 minutes at approximately 150°C (top/bottom heat). Tip: I wear disposable gloves to shape the balls, as the amaretti biscuits are very sticky.
