Almond bread is a delightful and easy-to-make treat that pairs perfectly with tea or coffee. With its subtle almond flavor and slightly sweet taste, it can serve as a light dessert or a tasty snack. This recipe requires just a few simple ingredients that you likely have in your pantry, making it a convenient option for any baking enthusiast.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a loaf pan by greasing it, or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a clean, dry bowl, whisk the egg whites until soft peaks form. This can be done using a hand mixer or a stand mixer on medium speed.
- Gradually add the sugar to the egg whites while continuing to whisk. Beat until the mixture becomes glossy and forms stiff peaks. This meringue should hold its shape when the whisk is lifted.
- Gently fold the flour into the meringue mixture using a spatula. Be sure to do this carefully to maintain the airiness of the beaten egg whites.
- Gently fold in the almonds, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Once the bread is done, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Slice the Almond Bread and serve it as a light snack or with your favorite spread.
Tips:
- Ensure the egg whites are at room temperature before beating to achieve maximum volume.
- Toast the almonds slightly before adding them to the batter to enhance their flavor.
- Fold the ingredients gently to avoid deflating the beaten egg whites.
- If you prefer a finer texture, roughly chop the almonds before adding to the mixture.
- Line your baking pan with parchment paper to prevent the bread from sticking.
