- 150 g flour
- 2 eggs
- 90 g sugar
- 10 g yeast
- 80 soaked raw almonds
- ground cinnamon to taste
- a pinch of salt
Mix all the ingredients apart from one of the eggs. Knead the mix and shape it like a flat ball about 5 cm wide. Place it on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and varnish the top with the remaining egg. Oven-bake at 180 °C (356 °F) for 5 minutes. Take out the tray and cut the loaf in strips of 1,5 cm placing each strip sideways. Put back in the oven for 30 more minutes, until they are nice and golden. Let them dry and enjoy!
If at any point you need a break from baking or perhaps want to play a bit while they dry: take the spoon, put a little almond marble on it and start to walk without letting it fall. Try to go quicker and quicker, running as fast as you can. Can you even climb up and jump down keeping the marble up on the spoon? It's all about the balance!..
