Almond Paste
Ingredients:
- 1¾ cups almond flour
- 1½ cups powdered sugar
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg white
- 1 to 1½ teaspoons almond extract
Instructions:
- Mix the dry ingredients:
In the bowl of a stand mixer (or large mixing bowl), combine the almond flour, powdered sugar, and salt. Stir or mix briefly to combine. - Add wet ingredients:
In a small bowl, whisk the almond extract into the egg white. Pour this mixture into the dry ingredients. - Blend to combine:
Using the paddle attachment, mix on medium speed until a thick dough forms. It should be soft but hold together like a paste. If it’s too dry, add a few drops of water; if too sticky, sprinkle in a little more almond flour. - Shape and wrap:
Scrape the paste from the bowl and shape it into a log or disc. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap—double wrapping is ideal for freshness. - Chill and store:
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before using. Almond paste will keep for up to 1 month in the refrigerator or 3 months in the freezer when well-wrapped.
Tip: Let the paste come to room temperature before using in recipes for easier handling.
