What to get ready

  • Photograph of Almond flour Almond flour 1.1 lb
  • Photograph of Powdered sugar Powdered sugar 14.1 oz

Method

  1. 1 Mix the almond flour with the powdered sugar and grated orange zest until well combined.
  2. 2 Beat the egg whites until fluffy, then gently mix them into the almond mixture.
  3. 3 Gather the ingredients into a ball, wrap tightly, and let it rest overnight; this step ensures the cake cracks nicely when baked.
  4. 4 Shape into a flattened rhombus and then roll thoroughly in powdered sugar.
  5. 5 Bake at 150 degrees for 15 minutes; the cake should still be soft in the middle and only slightly golden at the edges.

With an appliance

  • Air fryer 45 min

    Replace step 5: spray a thin layer of oil onto the sides of the mold, use a 165-degree hot air oven for 10 minutes, rotating the tray at minute 5. The strong airflow shortens the time by about one-third compared to a conventional oven and browns the surface faster.
