Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, almond flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
-
In a separate larger bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
-
Add the egg and almond extract to the butter-sugar mixture and mix until well combined.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until a soft dough forms.
-
Place the sliced almonds on a shallow plate. Take a small piece of dough and roll it into a rope about 6 inches long. Shape the rope into a ring, overlapping the ends slightly to seal. Press the top of the ring into the sliced almonds, coating it evenly.
-
Place the almond ring on the prepared baking sheet and repeat with the remaining dough and almonds.
-
Bake the almond rings in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until lightly golden.
-
Remove the almond rings from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes.
-
Once the almond rings have cooled slightly, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Before serving, dust the almond rings with powdered sugar for a festive touch.
