Blackberry almond financiers with honey

Blackberry almond financiers with honey are delightful French tea cakes that perfectly blend the nutty flavor of almonds with the sweetness of honey and the tartness of fresh blackberries. These bite-sized treats are a perfect accompaniment to a cup of tea or coffee and can be enjoyed as a light dessert or an indulgent snack.

Ingredients:

1 cup almonds
90g
26 tbsp powdered sugar
210g
5 egg whites
160g
1/2 cup all-purpose white wheat flour
60g
2 tbsp honey
40g
1 tbsp vegetable oil
14g
2 cups blackberries
290g
1 stick butter
110g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a financier or muffin pan with a little vegetable oil to prevent sticking.
2. Prepare the Almond Mixture:
In a food processor, grind the almonds until they are finely ground into a flour-like consistency. Transfer this almond flour to a large mixing bowl.
3. Combine Dry Ingredients:
Add the powdered sugar and all-purpose white wheat flour to the ground almonds. Mix until the dry ingredients are well combined.
4. Brown the Butter:
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Continue to cook until the butter turns a light brown color and has a nutty aroma. Be careful not to burn it. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
5. Mix Wet Ingredients:
In a medium bowl, whisk the egg whites until they are frothy but not stiff. Add the honey and vegetable oil to the egg whites and continue to whisk until well combined.
6. Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures:
Gradually add the frothy egg white mixture to the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently fold them together until a smooth batter forms. Next, fold in the cooled browned butter.
7. Add Blackberries:
Gently fold the blackberries into the batter, making sure they are evenly distributed. Be careful not to crush the berries too much.
8. Fill the Pan:
Spoon the batter into the greased financier or muffin pan, filling each cavity about three-quarters full. You can place a whole blackberry on top of each financier for decoration if desired.
9. Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the financiers are golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
10. Cool and Serve:
Remove the pan from the oven and let the financiers cool for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips:

- To get the best flavor, use fresh, ripe blackberries.

- Make sure the almonds are finely ground to give the financiers a smooth texture.

- Allow the melted butter to cool slightly before mixing it with the other ingredients.

- Use a piping bag for evenly distributing the batter into the molds, ensuring uniform shapes and sizes.

- Chill the batter for about an hour before baking to enhance the flavors and improve the texture of the financiers.
