How To Make Ricciarelli Biscuits:


The Ingredients

  • ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature

  • 300 g(3 cups) almond meal

  • 250 g caster sugar

  • 2 egg whites

  • Finely grated zest of 1 lemon

  • Icing sugar, for dusting


The Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Line a baking tray with baking paper.

  2. Mix the almond meal and sugar in a large bowl. Add the egg whites and lemon zest and mix through to create a paste (hands are best). Pinch off pieces of paste and shape into 3 cm x 4 cm rectangles or circles. Coat well in the icing sugar, then place onto the lined tray, leaving room for spreading. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the biscuits are slightly marked and the bottom is firm.

  3. Cool on a rack. These biscuits keep for weeks in an airtight container.
