Servings: 1 batch
Equipment
Ingredients
- 4 oz unsalted butter room temperature, 113 g
- ½ cup granulated sugar 99 g
- 1 cup almond meal packed, 120 g
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour 33 g
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 large eggs
- ½ teaspoon almond extract
Instructions
- Add softened butter and sugar to the bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade and blend until combined and fluffy.
- Whisk together almond meal, flour, and salt in a separate mixing bowl. Add the dry ingredient mixture to the butter mixture and blend together until crumbs form.
- Lightly beat together the eggs and almond extract in another bowl and add to the food processor. Blend until creamy.
- Transfer the frangipane to a bowl and refrigerate for at least an hour before using.
Notes
- You can use a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment instead of a food processor. An electric hand mixer will also work.
- If your butter is really soft to the point of almost melted, your frangipane will turn out runnier. This is okay, it will thicken up in the refrigerator.
