Raspberry Financier Recipe

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
• 1/2 cup ground almonds
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 4 egg whites
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup fresh raspberries

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Keep cooking until the butter turns golden brown and smells nutty. Remove the pan from the heat and let it cool down.
3. In a mixing bowl, combine the ground almonds, powdered sugar, and flour. Add in the egg whites and vanilla extract and whisk everything together until the batter is smooth and well-combined.
4. Gently fold in the browned butter into the batter until everything is well-incorporated.
5. Divide the batter into a muffin tin, filling each mold about 2/3 full. Place a few raspberries on top of each mold, pressing them lightly into the batter.
6. Bake the financiers for about 15-17 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are cooked through. Cool the financiers on a wire rack before serving.
