1 teaspoon baking powder<\/p>\n

180g caster sugar<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Instructions:<\/h5>\n

Put the almonds on a cookie tray in a single layer and bake in the oven at 180\u00baC\u00a0(350\u00baF)\u00a0for 5 minutes.<\/p>\n

Leave to cool on the bench.<\/p>\n

Beat the eggs and sugar together with an electric mixer (or whisk) until foamy.<\/p>\n

Add the flour, baking powder and salt. Mix in gently.<\/p>\n

Stir in the almonds by hand.<\/p>\n

Form the mixture into two long thin “loaves” \u00a0no more than 6cm (2 1\/2 inches) high and place them on a cookie sheet lined with baking paper.<\/p>\n

Brush with egg yolk.<\/p>\n

Bake at 200\u00baC\u00a0(400\u00baF)\u00a0for 20 minutes until golden-brown.<\/p>\n

Leave to cool for a few minutes until you can touch it.<\/p>\n

With a sharp serrated knife, cut slices approximately 1cm (1\/2 inch) thick and lay them on a cookie sheet.<\/p>\n

Bake at 200\u00baC\u00a0(400\u00baF)\u00a0for 7-10 minutes until slightly browned.<\/p>\n

The cantuccini can be stored in an air-tight container for several weeks.<\/p>\n
