Description
Note: Frangipane can be made up to a week in advance.
Ingredients
- 1 scant cup almond flour (or finely ground almonds*)
- ¼ C. sugar
- pinch of salt
- 4 T. butter at room temperature
- 1 egg
- 1 T. rum, brandy or bourbon
*If you can’t find almond flour or don’t feel like paying for it or don’t have it on hand, you can pulse almonds (whole, sliced, slivered, whatever) in the food processor. The color of the frangipane will be brownish if you use whole almonds and the texture of the finished frangipane might not be as smooth but the taste will still be great.
Instructions
- In the bowl of a stand mixer or food processor, combine almond flour, sugar, salt, butter and egg. Pulse until combined, then add alcohol if desired. Pulse until smooth. Transfer to a storage container and chill until ready to use.
