Almond paste, just egg whites and sugar, they practically melt in your mouth at the first bite.
We begin by adding the almond flour to a large bowl and blending all the ingredients. Using an immersion blender, we puree the unpeeled almonds and then combine them with the flour, sugar, and beaten egg white, mixing everything together. We also add the almond extract and use a spatula to mix the ingredients well until smooth. Then, we pour everything onto a work surface and begin kneading the resulting dough until it's smooth and compact. Using our hands, we begin to form balls, which we then flatten slightly to form the almond paste we intend to make.
How to make almond paste with egg whites and sugar
Roll each ball into a plate dusted with powdered sugar and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to rest at room temperature for about an hour. After 60 minutes, preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and bake for about 15 minutes, but be careful about your oven's power, as you may need to increase or decrease the baking time to ensure they're cooked through. At this point, our almond paste made with egg whites and sugar is ready, and I assure you, the result will be better than you imagined.
