Time 30m

Yield 36

Number Of Ingredients 5

11 ounces ground almonds
3 egg whites
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and lightly flour cookie sheets.
  • In a large bowl, whip egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually sprinkle in the sugar and keep whipping until the egg whites can hold a stiff peak, this will take about 5 minutes. Set aside about 1/2 cup of the egg whites. Add the lemon zest and cinnamon to the rest of the meringue, and fold in the almonds until everything is evenly blended.
  • Drop mounds by spoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheets. Top each cookie with a smaller dollop of the reserved meringue.
  • Bake for 15 minutes in the preheated oven, until golden brown. Remove cookies from the baking sheets to cool on wire racks.

I made a few substitutions to the recipe, and my cookies turned out great! I used almond flour instead of all-purpose flour, and I added a teaspoon of vanilla extract.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cookies didn't turn out as well as I hoped. They were a bit too dry.

These cookies were a hit! They were light and airy, with a delicate almond flavor. I loved the crispy meringue exterior and the chewy interior. I will definitely be making these again.
