This recipe is for those of you who wish to make homemade almond paste. I prefer making my own, but I purchase it in specialty stores when I don’t have the time.
Ingredients
- 1 pound blanched almonds
- 1 (16 ounce) package confectioners' sugar
- 3 large egg whites
- 1 teaspoon almond extract
Directions
Step 1
Grind almonds in a blender. Mix confectioners' sugar into almonds until combined. Beat egg whites slightly in a separate bowl, then mix into almond mixture. Use your hands to blend in almond extract.
Step 2
Form paste into a log, wrap tightly in plastic, and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
Recipe Tips
You can substitute 2 teaspoons rose water for the almond extract.Rose water can be purchased in Middle Eastern or health food stores.
