How to Make Amoretti (Stepwise Photos)

Method

  1. Grind almonds to a rough paste in a mixer. Transfer into a mixing bowl. Add icing sugar and mix with a fork.
  2. Add refined flour and mix till the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
  3. Beat egg whites in another bowl till frothy with a hand blender. Add caster sugar, a little at a time, and continue beating till frothy.
  4. Add egg mixture to the ground almond-flour mixture, a little at a time, and fold in gently so that the egg mixture does not lose its fluffiness. Add almond essence and salt and mix gently.
  5. Line a baking tray with butter paper brushed with some butter on both sides. Put spoonfuls of the amoretti batter keeping a space of an inch between each spoonful as it will rise and spread while baking. To make them appear neat, wet your fingers and shape the dough into round cookies.
  6. You can use a piping bag or plastic bag shaped into a cone with its tip cut, put the batter in it and squeeze out perfect round shaped cookies.
  7. Place the baking tray in the preheated oven and bake for 40 minutes.
  8. Take the tray out, cool down to room temperature and serve.
