Serve with fresh mint tea. Can be stored in an airtight container for 7 days


Ingredients (makes 20 biscuits)

  • 2 Egg Wihites
  • 3/4 Cup Castor Sugar
  • 1/2 Cup Ground Almonds
  • 1/2 Cup Semolina Flour
  • 1 Teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
  • 1/4 Cup Slivered Almonds

Method

  1. Beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Add sugar gradually, beating until dissolved.
  2. Fold in ground almonds, semolina and cinnamon.
  3. Place teaspoonfuls on a lined baking tray and sprinkle with slivered almonds.
  4. Bake at 160c for 10 minutes.

Notes

For a really decadent treat I leave off the almonds while cooking, once cooled I dip in melted dark chocolate then add a whole almond to the top for decoration

  • I love a delicate, chewy biscuit especially with a hint of cinnamon. I envision these biscuits to be delicate and airy. The egg whites would create a light, almost meringue-like texture i think, complemented by the slight chewiness of semolina. A dusting of icing sugar would complete the elegant presentation for me.
