Ingredients
100 g unsalted butter
80 g almond flour
100 g powdered sugar
-
30 g flour
4 egg whites (≈ 120 g)
-
2 level teaspoons of baking-grade matcha
-
Finely grated zest of 1 yuzu (or 1 teaspoon of yuzu juice)
-
1 pinch salt
Instructions
Browned butter
Melt the butter over medium heat until it turns a light brown color.
Strain and let cool.
Sift together: powdered sugar, almond flour, all-purpose flour, and matcha.
Add a pinch of salt.
Add the unwhipped egg whites. Gently fold them in.
Stir in the warm butter.
Add the yuzu zest or juice.
If desired, add the black sesame seeds.
Let the dough rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes (this improves the texture and rise).
Preheat the oven to 180°C (conventional oven).
Fill the financier molds 3/4 full.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes: the edges should be golden brown, and the center should still be slightly soft.
Remove from the pan after 5 minutes.
