1 cup granulated sugar
Chef's tip
Use the same volume. Baking behavior varies by blend: some brown faster or stay softer, while others brown less. Follow the package's baking guidance and start checking a few minutes early.
¼ tsp fine salt
2 large egg whites
1 ½ tsp almond extract
Ingredient note
Only a small amount of almond extract is used here, as a flavoring. That adds virtually no sugar and is likely fine on a candida diet. If you prefer to always avoid flavoring extracts, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
½ tsp vanilla extract
½ cup powdered sugar, for rolling
Chef's tip
Follow the package's conversion to powdered sugar. In frosting or glaze, add liquid gradually - replacements can absorb it differently.
24 whole blanched almonds (optional)

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2
