Amaretti - Baking with Tray ep. 6

Hello again!

Can't believe we are up to episode 6 already :D wow! After the last episode's semi fail bake, I needed to bake something a little more simple to get my confidence back up! I have actually never eaten amaretti before but a friend baked some and it looked so good so I thought I'd give it a go!
Amaretti are a sweet almondy Italian cookie that have a crispy outside and a soft and chewy inside. They are actually supposed to be slightly bitter (from bitter almonds) but this is a sweeter recipe. Best to be eating with coffee or tea. They only contain 4 ingredients so hope you give it a go too!
Amaretti
Recipe from Breadaheadbakery

Ingredients
1 egg white (30g)
94g caster sugar
150g almond meal
pure icing sugar, for coating

1. Line a baking tray with baking paper. Pre-heat oven to 190oC (mine was fan-forced)
2. Whisk the egg white in a clean bowl (can you a manual whisk or electric beater) until soft peaks.
3. Add caster sugar and whisk until thick and glossy (~1 minute)
4. Using a spatula, mix in almond meal until it turns into a dough. 
5. Roll teaspoonsful of dough into balls (or you can make larger ones if you want). Coat balls generously in icing sugar and place on baking tray. (Don't be tempted to dust off extra icing sugar).
6. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown and the tops have cracked open.



Loved the taste of my first amaretti and also was easy to bake :) You could do so many different flavours! Maybe next time I'll try matcha!!

Happy Baking :) till the next episode....
